Introducing Tyler Espino

Hello, everyone!

I am from a small farm town in Illinois, and identify as a multiracial male.  I obtained my undergraduate from Elmhurst College, and studied accounting in my undergraduate, but found that was far too boring for me and that I would much rather work with people.  Because of my experience in my undergrad, I decided that pursuing higher education is what I wanted to do.  I was heavily involved in many different activities that sparked my interest.  Because of this, I looked around at programs and decided to attend North Central for the Masters of Leadership Studies focused on Higher Ed once I received my graduate assistant role.  I serve as the Graduate Assistant for Residence Life for North Central.  With this role, I help to oversee the largest residence hall, Res/Rec Hall and supervise Resident Assistants.  I want to pursue the field of higher education student affairs and would like to work with orientation or fraternity and sorority life at an institution in the future.  Also, I strive to continue my education beyond my masters because I am a life-long learner and want to obtain my PhD in the future.
