Dec. 3, 2021

Jami Swazer has been with the 香港六合彩开奖直播 for nearly seven years. She is the academic and financial aid and youth transition coordinator for the Bristol Bay Campus and Aleutian Pribilof Islands Association, and tracks financial aid for all their students. She travels throughout the region as support for students and hosts ACCUPLACER and other financial aid-related events.

Swazer鈥檚 nomination packet noted that she is knowledgeable about funding sources for students and excels at helping them with admissions, registration and financial aid. 

"Jami's dedication and hard work are easily overlooked because she often operates in the background, making things happen like a magic genie in the bottle,鈥 wrote one supporter.

Swazer is also a role model as she continues her own education toward a B.A. degree from 香港六合彩开奖直播.
