Congratulations to Akeyla, our Student Employee of the Month, proudly sponsored by NOCCO!

Akeyla is a Marketing major, set to graduate in May 2026, and serves as the Finance Student Coordinator at Campus Recreation. In her role, Akeyla helps manage financial tasks and processes behind the scenes - gaining valuable real-world experience while supporting the daily operations of the department.

She discovered the position on Handshake while searching for a job that aligned with her goals of becoming more financially independent and gaining hands-on experience in a professional setting. It turned out to be the perfect fit.

Akeyla’s favorite part of working at Campus Rec is the welcoming environment, her supportive coworkers, and the friendships she's built along the way. She finds the work rewarding and appreciates how much she has learned from her time in the business office.

Outside of work, Akeyla enjoys cooking, spending time with friends, and planning her life with spreadsheets - a true operations mind in the making!

After graduation, she plans to move to Phoenix and pursue analytical or operations coordinator roles, with the goal of eventually moving to the East Coast. Her dream? Working for a high-end makeup brand or fashion company - ideally Skims.

Thank you, Akeyla, for your hard work, attention to detail, and the positive energy you bring to Campus Rec!
