Quote from the Supervisor:
“Mario’s exceptional commitment, initiative, and passion for service make him a standout recipient of the “Job Well Done” award. Originally planning to study at Warren Wilson College for just one semester, Mario extended his stay to design and carry out a full-time, dual-office internship with the Global Engagement Office (GEO) and Admissions. He independently spearheaded a research project focused on the international student experience, aiming to both highlight the vital contributions of this community and advocate for stronger institutional support.

Mario is known for his dependability, flexibility, and unwavering willingness to help wherever needed—whether it’s tabling, program development, or peer support. His enthusiasm uplifts his crew, and his leadership sustains productivity even in the absence of direct supervision. A natural collaborator and problem solver, Mario brings integrity, creativity, and professionalism to every aspect of his work. He not only embodies the best of the Warren Wilson work program but also raises the bar for what it means to serve with purpose.”
