Professionally, I am passionate about all aspects of neurodivergence and trauma-informed practices - from assessment to advocacy to assisting students in these areas. In all areas of my life, diversity/equity/inclusion (DEI) are top priority and I serve as a member of the Columbia College Cultural Enrichment Committee (CEC).  I also serve as a Part-Time Faculty Representative for the Columbia College Academic Senate. During my free time, I can usually be found up on a mountain or along the coast somewhere - camping, paddle boarding, backpacking, hiking, downhill skiing, & snowshoeing. I also enjoy live music and traveling. I love to do these things with my teenaged daughter and our 100-pound rescue dog! I am proud to be a registered member of the Cherokee Nation and enjoy native arts and practices.

My name is Miranda Person. I am a Psychology and Sociology Major. At the end of this fall semester, I will have completed my first year here at Columbia College. In my free time, I love attending live music functions and dancing with my friends--or even solo. I have been a tram driver since the Spring of 2022. I can honestly say that I love my job and that the Special Programs office is my home away from home.
