Marcelo F. Vazquez, Ed.D.

If given the opportunity to work with a student-centered professional like Ms. Briones, I would take it in a heartbeat. When Ms. Briones interned at USC and while a graduate student there, Evelyn's reputation grew quickly as a Student Services professional who connected well with students and students trusted her with the career advice. Words often used to describe Evelyn's approach to Career Services are "dedicated", "listener", "student centered", and "innovative". The persistence and career success of any student is strengthened if given the opportunity to connect with Evelyn. Evelyn has my highest recommendation as a Student Services and Career Counseling professional.

Lori Shreve Blake

I highly recommend Evelyn Briones without reservation. In academic year 2019 -2020 Evelyn served as a graduate intern at the USC Career Center. She contributed to programming, drop-in advising, presentations, virtual events and the First-Generation Mentor Program. Evelyn advised students and connected them with internship opportunities. She facilitated presentations for large student groups covering networking, resume building, and cover letter writing. Evelyn is passionate about empowering and supporting underrepresented students in their academic and career pursuits. She is a positive and outstanding team player, and brings great energy to her work.

Esther Lanier

Evelyn excelled in advising our students and showed great compassion when addressing their concerns. She deeply and genuinely cares for students and as a first gen herself understand the struggles first gen students may face. She is very resourceful and ensures students understand services available and encourages their use. Her positive attitude is a strength that helps her build rapport with students right away. She is a person who takes initiative and a great collaborator. For example, she was involved in planning and executing various programs and facilitated career workshops in the career center.
