Caiya C. ’26
she/herExternal Operations Coordinator Major: EngineeringConcentration: TheatreMachine Shop Proctor, South Dorm President (ASHMC), CuTE Lab
“As the External Operations Coordinator, I’ve gotten to coordinate with different communities at Mudd, making sure that both the tour guides and visitors get the most out of the program. I’ve loved having the space to expand our program for dorm/language tours to make it as inclusive as possible. But the best part of my job is working with this leadership team and hanging out with Corina :)”

“Internal Ops allows me to analyze the processes of the HMC Admission Tour Guides to make them more efficient and reliable. I also have found it very exciting to see the internal workings of HMC Admission and meet all of our cool admission staff members! But the best part of my job is hanging out with Caiya :)”
