Monica Duran Castillo

Monica's primary responsibility is to work the front desk, greeting everyone with a bright smile, and helping our students' families with any problems they might experience are some of my responsibilities at Student U. My responsibilities also include supporting staff with tasks, interacting with our staff members, and assisting families that speak Spanish.

Student U Bilingual Administrative Assistant

Monica's Why:

I support Student U because I enjoy interacting with new people and I love to assist families. I like the atmosphere and how things are run here. I respect the team members as well; despite the various struggles we all face, we all maintain a positive attitude.

Monica outside of Student U:

Although I don’t participate in any sports, I love watching them all, especially volleyball. Watching anime, my boyfriend taking me out and buying me things are some of my hobbies (I spoil him too, no worries) . I appreciate various types of music, but mostly city pop from the 1980s in Japan and Kpop. Studying, finishing up my classes, and preparing for the big thing are my side hustles.

Advice Monica finds valuable:

Have confidence and to always stay strong no matter what battles you fight outside of work. Smile, today could be your last day.
