Yvonne Giannini

I have worked in financial aid at Brightpoint Community College since November 2021.  Just like many in our profession, I had never thought about a career in financial aid.  However, from day one it has been the most fulfilling, rewarding job I ever could have imagined for myself.  It has been such a joy to meet and work with others in the field through volunteering with VASFAA, from hosting luncheons in my area to becoming Membership Committee Co-Chair alongside Kathleen Roebuck.  As Membership Committee Co-Chair, I helped to refine our process once someone volunteers to be sure everyone receives communication in a timely fashion.  I am very excited for the chance to serve as Rep-at-Large for this wonderful organization that helps financial aid professionals better serve their students and communities.  Thank you for your support!
