Mary Maidment: Service

Hi! My name is Mary Maidment and I am from Portland, Oregon. I am studying neuroscience with a minor in psychology on the pre-med track. On campus, I work as an events assistant and as an Ambassador, frequently giving tours.

Artisans Reflection: Trey Hardy

Almost a month ago now, I met my mentee Aaron. Aaron has been one of the long-term workers at Artisans and is great overall. He started off quiet and shy as I expected, however I have really gotten to know Aaron this last month when we meet on Thursdays.

I have found out that Aaron is very physically active and has a great schedule as far as going bowling, swimming, lifting weights, and many other activities. We usually talk about how all of this is going and watch a movie while doing things like playing his favorite game, Chutes and Ladders.

This week we decided that Aaron and his friend at Artisans, Jacob, should make gingerbread houses and watch Christmas movies, as this was the last meeting before Christmas. Aaron made some awesome houses by himself and I really enjoyed watching him figure out how to do the little things to make sure the house was absolutely perfect!
