Howdy! My name is Zhanna Miller. I am a junior EC-6 Generalist major from Flower Mound, TX, which is north of Fort Worth. I am very excited to serve as your UPMT alongside Dr. Hawk this semester.
During my junior and senior year of high school, I began to explore the education field by taking Human Growth & Development and a practicum class where I had the opportunity to student teach in a third grade classroom. Alongside those classes, I was a member of Texas Association of Future Educators and presented a field-based project on Educational Administration. After graduating high school, I began my undergrad studies at Tarleton State University in Stephenville, TX with hopes of transferring here to Texas A&M. Following a successful year at Tarleton, I transferred here a year ago to begin my Aggie education as an Early Childhood Education Major.
This is my first semester as a UPMT, so I am very excited to be a resource to you and continue to learn and grow alongside you this semester. Aside from classes and this position, I am a teaching assistant at TAMU’s Becky Gates Children’s Center, involved at St. Mary’s Catholic Center and enjoy spending time with my roommates and friends. I’m a country music fan, love a good rom com, enjoy baking, and work to get a good run in when I find the time.
My goal this semester is to be a helpful resource to students and present information in a friendly way; after all, that’s how we do things here in Aggieland. I hope to grow in my knowledge of technology resources and grow as a mentor and leader as I continue my journey to become an educator. Please don’t ever hesitate to reach out… I’ll always be willing to help in whatever way I can!
