Erin Stirling | Student Success Programs Director
Hello! I graduated from SLCC in 2003 and went on to receive a Masters in Education. SLCC was an amazing place for me to begin my educational journey and it only seems right that I returned in 2013 to work at the school I love. I am here to help you be successful during your time at SLCC. If you have questions about your PACE scholarship or wondering about a resources or have any question I can help!
Zitlalli Herrera | Assistant Director, Bruin Scholars Program
Hola! My name is Zitlalli Herrera, and I am proud to be Mexican American. I graduated from Salt Lake Community College and later transferred to the University of Utah, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a master’s degree in Education, Leadership, and Policy with an emphasis in Student Affairs. Throughout my academic journey, I was fortunate to find individuals who supported me, and I am passionate about providing the same support to others. In my free time, I love spending time with my family, exploring new restaurants, and watching cheesy movies and series.
