I like being able to grow with such a diverse and open-minded team. As a Resident Assistant, I am able to grow as a leader and as a person in general. I feel like my professional skills and soft skills have improved greatly.
What I wish was different
I do not wish for anything to change.
Advice
I think it is important to not only be physically available, but also emotionally. It is important to be there for your residents, but also have time to yourself so that the positive experiences as a Resident Assistant can be reaped as much as possible.
