Sasha graduated from University of Central Florida in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science having studied business, music, and recreation. Through her time at UCF, Sasha worked at the Recreation and Wellness Center and learned the “ropes” which helped her to move into a graduate assistantship upon graduation. She accepted the position at Texas A&M University-Commerce where she was able to not only start a Challenge Course program but also learn what it takes to run a trip program. Sasha earned her Master of Science degree studying Training and Development with an emphasis in Higher Education.

Sasha was born in Georgetown, Guyana but grew up in Winter Park, Florida. She has three younger brothers, Hugh, Victor, and Jarod, as well as a younger sister, Alyssa. Sasha enjoys spending time with her siblings and getting them outside. Her favorite activities include cooking, watching movies, hiking, flat water paddling, and learning new things. Sasha’s favorite things about UREC are the exchange of ideas and collaboration that reach out to as many students as possible and developing student leaders.
