I’m excited to be a part of the \u00a0#hyperlib Learning Community Sites<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My name is Dawn Khepri. I am a Coptic Egyptian-American person living in Tacoma, Washington. I moved here about a year and a half ago from Humboldt, California. My family all decided to move to Tacoma all at the same time. My brother did a lot of research before deciding this is where we would all live. He factored in cost, growth, climate change, distance to the outdoors, and distance to a big city like Seattle.<\/p>\n

I live with my wonderful partner, Ryan. We love going to farmers markets all over Western Washington. We are even taking time off work to attend a Thursday market in Downtown Tacoma. Our favorite walk is the Tacoma Nature Conservatory, though it is a little mosquito-heavy this time of year.<\/p>\n

We both work at Tacoma Community College as Academic Advisors, where we met. I have a caseload of about 400 students. I love them all, even the most frustrated students. It’s so rewarding to help community college students overcome their initial barriers to entering the academic world.<\/p>\n

My favorite snack is the picked crab meat at our local Metropolitan Market. The food in Tacoma is great, and the food in Seattle is even better. I love exploring new restaurants, even if some aren’t the best.<\/p>\n

There are also tons of exhibits and art galleries to explore in the Seattle\/Tacoma area. We recently went to the exquisite creates exhibit. So many creatures I didn’t know could be so beautiful. We love going to local classes as well, like bonsai tree and sushi making.<\/p>\n

I studied English Literature at Cal Poly Humboldt for my undergraduate degree and my associate’s degree at College of the Redwoods. I worked in Adult Education during my Associate’s degree at College of the Redwoods, where I formed a passion for serving incarcerated students. I hope to eventually land a job working as a librarian and archivist for a correctional facility.<\/p>\n

If you made it this far, thanks for reading a little about me, and I look forward to reading a little about you all!<\/p>\n
