Meet Marisol Negrete Pizzi, CED Executive Assistant to the Dean & Associate Deans
Earlier this year, the College of Education welcomed Marisol Negrete Pizzi as the Executive Assistant to the Dean and Associate Deans. Here, Marisol shares why she chose a career in higher education, her favorite aspect of her new job, and more.
One personal accomplishment that I am proud of is getting out of my comfort zone and relocating to another state.
I assist the Dean and Associate Deans in supporting CED staff and faculty with the tools needed to prepare our students to succeed in completing their degrees at Áù¾ÅÉ«ÌÃ.
Before coming to Áù¾ÅÉ«ÌÃ, I worked for the Office of The Dean of Dual Credit and Early College High Schools at El Paso Community College (EPCC) located in El Paso, Texas.
I decided to make a career in higher education when I was working for Career & Transfer Services at EPCC, and was accepted to complete the master’s degree in Higher Education Administration at New Mexico State University (NMSU). While working on my degree, I understood that my calling was to stay in higher education to help my community.
My favorite aspect of my job is knowing that the work I am doing provides opportunities for our students to earn a degree that will allow them to grow and make a difference in other people’s lives.
