Day 37 – Brandt Smith from the UCO VSLC

I love going into office with a purpose and being
comfortable enough to talk about important topics with a person I don’t know. I
went into UCO’s Volunteer and Service Learning Center to speak with Brandt
Smith about several questions regarding tracking volunteer hours.
We talked about his finger he accidentally sawed part of
off, AmeriCorps, future careers at UCO, my long-term career goals and different
fun topics overall. It was very enjoyable to just sit down with someone who has
just enough passion, hardworking attitude and head going a million different
directions as I do, probably more. I told him I love talking with people who
have the job I want. We talked for over an hour during the final hour of
business! I mean really? Who sits down with a student to chat about something
for 45 minutes longer than needed at the end of the day? Someone who is
awesome, that’s who!

So thank you Brandt Smith for taking more than the time to
share with me answers, ideas and possibly a future job once my first term of
AmeriCorps is over.


Who can you take extra time for?
