Calling all JHU Alumni!
Thinking of a career, or life change? Want more balance, growth or impact from your current career? Wonder how your skills and expertise translate to other career paths?

Join Life Design experts, staff and alumni for a virtual panel discussion of the Alumni Life Design Experience (ALDE), a new four-week course launching June 2023, developed for JHU alumni ready for change. Meet the ALDE team and learn how this course can help you better understand your strengths, skills and values; identify multiple potential career paths to pursue; leverage effective career resources to help you achieve your goals; and build lasting relationships with peers.

Inspired by Design Thinking, the ALDE course curriculum will break down the overwhelming challenge of “figuring out what you want next” into simple steps that thousands of people like you have used to create careers they love.

Michael has been part of JHU’s Office of Integrated Learning and Life Design (ILLD) since Fall 2019, supporting students in exploring how their major may align with their industries/fields of interest through curriculum design scaffolding, teaching courses, and tailored advising. Before joining the ILLD, Michael was an administrator and faculty at Bennington College and Hampshire College respectively, Michael’s academic background is in urban and architectural theory having completed graduate coursework at University of California Berkeley and plans on completing his PhD dissertation in summer 2023. Michael has a BA in architectural studies from University of California Riverside.

In his spare time, he loves working on his Olympic lifting form and kettlebell routines. He is thrilled to be supporting JHU alumni in exploring their life and career interests and is committed to redesigning integrated learning and design thinking in ways that take into account the diverse lives of JHU students and alumni. If Mike could tell his college-self anything, he would say to consider reframing the exploration of aspirations and challenges, not as an individualistic and isolating experience, but as one that can be meaningfully supported through a community centered approach, leaning on alumni mentoring resources as one example.
