To The E-portfolio Committee,

It is with great pleasure to recommend Jaime Hermosillo as a professional for the

field of higher education and student affairs. I had the opportunity to meet Jaime at the
2016 Loyola University Preview Days last March. There, Jaime served as panelists to
help prospective, as well as, admitted students gain a better understanding of the Higher
Education at Loyola University. From that day forward, Jaime has not only been a
resource to myself, but to a plethora of students.
While working as a graduate assistant at Northwestern University, along side
Jaime, I had the opportunity to watch him grow and develop as a student affairs
practitioner. Jaimes commitment to social justice, allows him to bring a unique lens to
any professional environment. Being able to watch my peer and colleague grow in such a
short amount of time has shown me his commitment to multiculturalism, college access,
and the holistic development of students he will work with upon graduation.
The goal of Loyola University Chicagos Higher Education program is to prepare
professional educators for a variety of administrative roles and functions in post-
secondary education. Jaimes academic course work, graduate assistantship, internships,
research involvement, etc., has made him into a competent and well-versed professional
ready to work with any population of students/staff/faculty.
In summary, I believe Jaime will serve as an influential and life changing student
affairs practitioner. He has gained transferrable skills through his experience working in
multiple functional areas, practices an ethic of care, and is dedicated to ensuring students
are successful beyond college admission. If you have any questions, please feel free to
contact me.

Cordially,
Jazminn Williams
