Hello! My name is Pablo Brito (He/Him/El) I am coming to Reed from Oregon State University, where I was working as an academic advisor with the School of Psychology. I was born in Oregon and have spent the majority of my life around the Willamette valley (think an hour south of Portland) in a super small town called Mt. Angel and in a city called Salem (our state's capital). My parents are from Mexico, specifically from the state of Morelos, about two hours south of Mexico City. I try to visit my family in that area at least once a year.

Some fun info about me! I am super into cooking (Mexican food is my specialty) and like to try new recipes (even when I fail, I learn something new about the process), love adding new vinyl to my record collection (yes, I own a record player), love live music, and I spend time running outside.

My name is Sommer Ireland (she/her/hers), and while I've lived in 8 states, 1 federal district, and 2 European countries, I'll always call South Carolina home. I've been working in higher education since 2019 in both academic and student-life capacities. My two passions as an undergraduate student were studying abroad and my work as an RA, so I feel lucky to have worked in both study abroad and residence life for my professional career. Before Reed, I worked for Colorado State University in their University Housing department, and at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as an Education Abroad Coordinator.

I live on campus with my fiancé and dog Ocean. After work, Ocean and I go for our daily walk/run, and then I enjoy unwinding with a good book (typically fantasy), or watching an intense medical drama to remind me that my life could be much more stressful than it is! On the weekends, I try to take advantage of the beautiful nature of the PNW by either hiking, visiting the coast, skiing during the winter, or visiting wine country in the Willamette Valley. I also love traveling, astrology, tarot cards, and being an auntie to my nieces and nephews.

Hi There, Hello!

My name is Megan Simón (she/her/hers), and I was lucky enough to have grown up right here in Portland, Oregon. I graduated from Portland State University with a B.S. in Social Sciences in 2022 and am now working on my masters degree in Educational Policy and Leadership. Before coming to Residence Life I worked at Reed in other capacities, both in the Student Life Office and the Office for Student Engagement. I also serve as the Director of Education for the Gender, Advocacy, and Inclusion Network (GAIN) of Higher Education where I am in charge of curating the organization's yearly educational opportunities and conference sessions.

I am excited about helping students successfully navigate processes and systems through advising, programming and project management. Throughout my career I have maintained a particular interest in accessibility and equity, working to facilitate conversations around supporting students with disabilities beyond the classroom.

I live with my husband, son, and our pets, Doodles and Mochi. For fun, we love taking road trips through eastern Oregon, playing cribbage, watching bad reality tv, and perusing the nearest record store.

Office Hours: Student Center 114, Every Wednesday from 1–3 p.m.
