Services division. In my role I oversee the different programs in the office; work on immigration-related matters; liaise with other campus departments, faculty, and staff on issues relating to international students and scholars; and supervise office staff. If you are a prospective student and decide to attend Reed, we will get to know each other very well. I hail from Puerto Rico, which was home during my childhood, but spent my teenage and undergraduate years in Florida. I received a B.A. in History from the University of Florida and obtained an MAT from Tufts University in Boston. I'm a huge fan of Portland and love the city's pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods, great food, and laid back vibe. During my free time I love biking around the city, playing kickball, traveling, and relaxing at home with a good book in hand. If you have any questions about issues relating to the ISS office or international students and language scholars at Reed, please contact me.

Hello! My name is Jonathan and I am excited to be working in International Student Services this year! This is my second year at Reed and I am very excited to spend another year with such an amazing staff and phenomenal student body! I am a native Southern Californian, but now with a year under my belt I think  that it's safe to say that I am your every day coffee and indie music loving Portlander. I attended California Lutheran University (CLU) where I earned my B.A. in Communication and my Master's in Counseling and Guidance with specialization in College Student Personnel. Before coming to Reed I spent my time working in academic advising at CLU where I was introduced to aebleskivers and various other Scandinavian traditions. In addition to my job in ISS, I am the Resident Director for Old Dorm Block & Anna Mann. When I am not at work I am exploring Portland, traveling around the country and making mix tapes for my friends.
