Want to know more about being a Career Peer? Check out this Q&A with one of our current Career Peers, Tyra Hill:
Name: Tyra Hill
Position Title: Career Center Career Peer
Major(s)/Minor(s): Psychology major, with a Biology concentration
Current Class Level: Junior
Tell us about your role as a Career Peer including your weekly responsibilities.
The job responsibilities tend to vary and it really depends on the day, but some of the tasks that are always consistent as a Career Peer include conducting drop-ins [resume reviews], producing newsletter e-mails to be sent to students in various majors, producing blog posts, and any task or project that may be asked of me by my supervisor or another Career Center staff member. I also presented workshops, and staffed information tables for various events. Around the time of the Career Fair, I helped out as well.
What new skill sets did you develop as a result of being a Career Peer?
Being a Career Peer helped me become a lot better at speaking publicly. Something that we often do is present workshops and staff information tables, which gave me a lot more practice speaking in front of others. I learned how to properly critique resumes and cover letters, which is one of the main tasks that my job requires. I also developed the ability to work a lot more quickly. Working in the Career Center also gave me a lot of insight about developing myself professionally, the job search process, and how to interact with others in professional settings.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. How and when did you learn of the position? How did you submit your application? What was the interview like?
I learned about this position on UMBCworks around the end of the Spring 2019. I submitted my application through UMBCworks, as well as my class schedule, resume, and cover letter. I was contacted by my now supervisor to come in for an interview. The interview was about an hour long, and the interview questions were definitely extremely relevant to a lot of the situations that I encountered once I became a Career Peer.
What have you enjoyed the most about your position as a Career Peer?
I enjoyed being able to help my peers the most. I am the type of person who really likes helping others and it comes very naturally to me, so this job was extremely fulfilling for me personally because it really allows you to make a difference in the lives of many students. College can be such a confusing time and it’s often filled with uncertainty, so being able to alleviate any of the anxiety that comes along with the college process, college experience, or job search for any of my peers is very enjoyable to me. Nobody knows better than a current college student how hard things can be for other students, so it’s definitely nice to be able to help those who are in the same stage of receiving an education as I am.
I also enjoyed the amount that I learned as a Career Peer. I often hear students who also work talk about how much time work takes up in their day, and how they feel drained from their jobs. I never felt that way as a Career Peer. While it can be challenging, you truly learn so much that ultimately helps you grow as an individual, student, and as a young professional.
How do you believe you have made an impact on UMBC students through your work?
I believe that I have helped UMBC students better explore their options, expand their body of knowledge surrounding college and the job search; provided them tools to aid in their professional development, and given them more confidence about the work that they have done and the experiences that they’ve gained. The really cool thing about being a Career Peer is that you can give other students honest advice based on the experiences that you have had, and this means a lot to students when it is coming from one of their peers. To have a student reach out and let me know that they got a job with a resume that I helped them with, or were able to take advantage of an opportunity that I told them about is amazing to hear, and speaks to the amount of impact that being a Career Peer can have.
What advice would you give to another student who is applying to the Career Peer position?
To another student applying for the Career Peer position, I would say to work on your resume (our
Career Guide has great examples if you haven’t seen it already), and don’t be afraid to ask questions and think outside of the box. Also, for those who are called in for interviews, always remember to be professional, compassionate, and let your personality show! If you are someone who truly enjoys helping others, and is looking for an extremely fulfilling on-campus job, this position is definitely for you.
The Career Center is currently recruiting for our next great Graphic Design Intern for Summer 2020 through Spring 2021.
We would also like to congratulate our current graphic design intern, Nancy Luu, on her upcoming graduation this May. Get to know a little about Nancy and more about her experience working as our graphic design intern for the past year with this Q&A:
Name: Nancy Luu
Internship Site: UMBC Career Center
Position Title: Graphic Design Intern
Major(s)/Minor(s): Graphic Design
Current Class Level: Senior
Tell us about your internship including your weekly responsibilities.
For my internship, I worked closely with my supervisor, Dustin Eby, to update the annual Career Guide in the summer, and create and update weekly marketing items, including posters, flyers, and digital screen [advertisements] for the UMBC Career Center’s events, job fairs and career conferences.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position? How did you submit your application? What was the interview like?
I attended the Arts with a Purpose networking event, hosted by the Career Center at UMBC to help art students with their portfolios and job search. I was able to meet with Dustin and learned about the available graphic design internship at the Career Center. I reached out to him afterward and applied for the position through UMBCworks. A few weeks after, I was contacted for an interview with Dustin. During the interview, we reviewed my portfolio, which allowed me to showcase the projects I had worked on. We talked about the position’s expectations and what would be my responsibilities as an intern. Within a few weeks, I got an email for the job offer, and I was super excited to accept my first design job!
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or the Career Center?
Since this position was my first design job, I enjoyed learning everything about design and the work environment. The flexibility of the meetings is a bonus as a full-time student.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I love being able to use my design skills to create meaningful works to help UMBC students with their job search journeys. Like a well-written paper, a good design with a strong hierarchy helps people obtain and retrieve the information quicker and easier.
What advice would you give to another student who is applying to the graphic design intern opening?
My advice is to never be afraid to ask questions, be organized, and if you ever get stuck in your design process, sketching always helps.

URCAD Sneak Peek: Ayodele La Veau
"The Process": A journey through the creative mind
Only 2 days left to check out URCAD Online, now through April 29, 2020!
URCAD.umbc.edu
“The Process”
Ayodélé La Veau
Eve Muson, Theatre; Nicole Smith, McCourt School of Public Policy, Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce
Abstract:
As a URA scholar, I was granted an opportunity to combine my majors in Psychology and Theatre to explore Art therapy. Art therapy is defined as “an integrative mental health and human services profession that enriches the lives of individuals, families, and communities through active art-making, creative process, applied psychological theory, and human experience within a psychotherapeutic relationship” The purpose of my original study was to gather qualitative data from public secondary schools and creative arts programs within Baltimore City, on the use of the creative process as a means to teach and explore social emotional learning. Due to COVID-19, this portion of my project has been postponed. I took this opportunity to focus on my “why”, and learn more about the creative process and its benefits. I created this video to illustrate the journey from an idea or vision to a final product. Everyone has a different relationship with this journey. Engaging in the creative process is one way to monitor this relationship. There are many nuances and challenges along the way, sometimes we are able to push past them with our own tools and other times, we might benefit from some guidance. Enjoy “The Process”.
This work was funded, in part, through an Undergraduate Research Award from the UMBC Division of Undergraduate Academic Affairs.
In the absence of physical space to learn, create, and come together, the Women’s Center is taking Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) 2020 online. Each week during April, we will focus on a specific topic/theme as it relates to sexual violence awareness and prevention (see image below). Together, via out social media platforms like Facebook,Twitter, and Instagram, we can watch videos, read articles, and engage in other content for learning and skill-building.
UMBC’s Sexual Assault Awareness Month online calendar includes weekly themes to help explore important concepts related to sexual violence awareness and prevention.
But, we get it… Maybe you’re not on Facebook. Maybe you needed to take a break from social media for the day because you’re practicing self-care. Or maybe, you’re still following us on all the things and still missed a pretty cool post. That’s okay! In addition to posting on social media throughout the month, at the end of each week, we’ll provide a round-up of all the content we shared along with some action items to consider doing.
We just wrapped up Week 4 of SAAM with lots of posts and content centered around the theme of “Centering the Margin: Individual and Systemic Barriers.” This meant the posts we shared took a deeper dive into how sexual assault prevention and response often pushes underrepresented and marginalized survivors to the margins. Through resource sharing and consciousness-raising, we hope that as individuals and communities we center these survivors and ensure prevention and response work that takes their specific needs into consideration.
So what did we explore?
- What is cultural betrayal trauma theory? This theory by Dr. Jennifer Gomez is the result of her research focused on the effects of interpersonal trauma (e.g., physical, sexual, and emotional abuse) in diverse populations. Cultural betrayal trauma theory is the idea that some minorities develop what Gomez calls “(intra)cultural trust” – love, loyalty, attachment, connection, responsibility and solidarity with each other to protect themselves from a hostile society. Within-group violence, such as a black perpetrator harming a black victim, is a violation of this (intra)cultural trust. This violation is called a cultural betrayal and it can lead to diverse outcomes, including PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and internalized prejudice. You can learn more here.
A visual representation of cultural betrayal trauma theory.
- Deepening Our Demands For Safety and Healing For Black Survivors of Sexual Violence: “For every Black woman who reports her rape, at least fifteen do not. Many cite a fear that they will not be believed by authorities, or, worse yet, subjected to further violence and criminalization” (Ritchie, Andrea 2017). Read more on Andrea Ritchie’s research and policy brief for “Deepening Our Demands For Safety and Healing For Black Survivors of Sexual Violence”
Image of the cover page for the “Deepening Our Demands For Safety and Healing For Black Survivors of Sexual Violence.”
- Intersectionality Matters with Kimberlé Crenshaw: #MeToo and Black Women: From Hip Hop to Hollywood: Listen to this powerful conversation addressing the historical violence of Black women and what movement building looks like that center’s Black women’s experiences
- Transgender Sexual Violence Survivors: A Self Help Guide to Healing and Understanding : “50% or more of all transgender and gender non-conforming people have experienced some form of sexual abuse, sometimes from many different people over many years.” This helpful guide explores techniques and exercises for healing, descriptions for LGBT services and how to develop a safety plan.
To see everything posted on our accounts last week, check out the hashtag #UMBCsaam over at Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
Important Take-Aways:
→ Advocate for policies that combat inequality in education, health care, law enforcement and the judicial system that center the needs of underrepresented communities who experience trauma (to learn more, check out Nadia BenAissa’s URCAD Presentation)
→ Believe Survivors. No matter what identities they hold.
→ Challenge toxic and harmful cultural norms that impact survivors’ mental health. Learn how to support harm doers in being accountable by checking out this video on How to Support Harm Doers in Being Accountable.
Follow the Women’s Center on myUMBC, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for SAAM updates and information throughout the month of April. You can also stay up-to-date by following #UMBCsaam
Throughout this time of distance learning, campus staff are still here and available for support. Do not hesitate to reach out for questions, concerns, or care.

Contributions Of Maternal Mental Health, Parenting And Marital Relationship To East Asian American Children’s Adjustment
Ozair Qazi
Mentor: Dr. Charissa Cheah, Psychology
Abstract:
East Asian immigrant mothers face multiple stressors during the acculturation process and are at risk for developing depressive symptoms, which may negatively influence their parent-child relationship and, consequently, their children’s behavioral adjustment. Positive marital relationships could buffer against these negative effects on children’s adjustment. The present study examined the mediating role of East Asian immigrant mother’s parental warmth in the association between maternal depressive symptoms and children’s behavioral adjustment, and the moderating role of marital relationship quality on the association between maternal warmth and children’s behavioral adjustment. First-generation East Asian immigrant mothers (N=357) with preschool-aged children in Maryland reported their depressive symptoms, parental warmth, and marital relationship quality. Teachers reported children’s socio-emotional and behavioral outcomes. Results showed that maternal depressive symptoms were associated with less maternal warmth. In turn, lower maternal warmth was related to greater adjustment difficulties in children, but only when mothers reported lower levels of marital relationship quality. These findings suggest that positive marital relationship may provide additional resources to buffer against the negative effects of maternal depressive symptoms on children’s adjustment outcomes in school. Implications for promoting East Asian families’ mental health, positive relationship quality and children’s adjustment in the United States will be discussed.
This work was funded, in part, through an Undergraduate Research Award from the UMBC Division of Undergraduate Academic Affairs.
