I’m Sarahina Borgia (They/Them/Theirs), I am a born and raised Floridian, I attended undergrad in Sarasota Florida (A wonderfully, beautiful little beach town) at Ringling College of Art and Design where I obtained a BFA in Motion Design. While at Ringling I was heavily involved in Student/Residence Life, which ultimately lead me to pursue a professional career in higher education. Post-graduation (2017) I moved out to Nacogdoches, Texas for a Hall Director position with Stephen F. Austin State University (SFA) overseeing various communities. I lived/worked there for three years while obtaining my MA in Student Affairs and Higher Education and working in SFA's Office of Multicultural Affairs conducting programming and community education, focused on supporting the queer community.

My passion areas are student support, engagement, and development. I enjoy helping students find and develop their voices; giving them the tools to use those voices to navigate the world and the challenges they might face during and post-college.
