Meet the Graduate Assistants
Meet Grace!
Hello, my name is Grace
De Oro (she, her) and I am the Adult Learner Graduate Assistant for Off-Campus
Student Services. This August I celebrated 2 years of working alongside the
Staff in OCSS.
I am a Ph.D. student in the School
of Public Policy and recently graduated in May 2019 from UMBC with my Masters
in Public Policy with a concentration in Environmental Policy. I will be
hopefully defending my dissertation proposal this year. I am currently focusing
my research on nonprofit organizations’ resilience through the COVID-19
Pandemic as well as their relationship to government. I commute from Woodbine,
MD (Western Howard County), where I live on a small 5-acre farmincluding cats, horses, a miniature donkey,
chickens, ducks, goats, snakes, and many, many dogs.
I will be on-campus in the office on
Mondays and Wednesday this semester and working from home on Tuesdays. You can
always reach me by email - degrac1@umbc.edu or Adultlearners@umbc.edu
