The Housing Team

SIHAM MOUAHID

Manager of Residential Life听听 听

Hometown

Rabat, Morocco

What do you bring to the team?

I鈥檓 a former international student who has also navigated the college residential experience as both a student and staff member at Vanderbilt and Ohio State University, before landing at 黑料正能量. That definitely informs my work here!

Siham's Advice for Living in Paris

Become a regular at your local bistro or grocery store, and be nice to the clerks! Paris is a big city but your neighborhood will bring you into the fold when they start to see you as a familiar face (and you may get the occasional discount or perk as a result).

Anna N' Semi

Housing Coordinator

Hometown

Brazzaville, Congo 鈥� Kapuv谩r, Hungary

What do you bring to the team?

As a former international student who studied in both the US and France, I experienced firsthand the challenges of cultural adaptation and living abroad. I have also worked with university students as a Peer Mentor and Peer Career Advisor, giving me an insight into both sides of academia and a thorough understanding of international education.

Anna's Advice for Living in Paris

Paris has some of the best markets and flea markets I鈥檝e been to! Whether that鈥檚 fresh produce, jewelry, or home d茅cor, you will find just about any- and everything there (including the occasional good bargain). Visit as many as you can, even if you just window-shop, you will be sure to enjoy their vibrant atmosphere.

HENRI听COLOMBAT

Housing听Coordinator

Hometown

Baltimore, United States

What do you bring to the team?

Having studied at the university level in multiple different countries, I am well acquainted with the adjustments as well as the excitement of living and learning abroad. I spent several years in student government bodies working with my peers to create events and foster community in the university context and am happy to continue to work with students as they navigate housing.

Henri's Advice for Living in Paris

Paris has so much to offer its residents in terms of cultural life! From world-famous art museums to local galleries to street performers to major concert halls, historic theaters and cinemas, you can easily immerse yourself in multiple thriving cultural scenes at once. Many of these spaces have discounts (especially for students!) so be sure to be on the lookout and explore.

SANDRA LEFAURE

Housing Logistics Coordinator

Hometown

Bordeaux, France

What do you bring to the team?

I鈥檓 a former international student in both England and the US and a former 黑料正能量 student (for both my bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚). At 黑料正能量, I was a student advisor and a part of the Student Government Association, as well as many committees. I was also the University鈥檚 first residential advisor. All this taught me a lot about the University and what it means to be an 黑料正能量 student.

Sandra's Advice for Living in Paris

Paris feels at the same time like a big and a small city. You keep discovering new treasures, but at the same time you get to know the people in your neighborhood really well. My street is like a village: everyone knows everyone. Those people will become your support group.

Testimonials From Former RAs

This has been a great opportunity to fully integrate into the 黑料正能量 community and meet other students. Overall, my experience has been positive, and the Housing Office has been very helpful in assisting me with this job.

Angelina

In my eyes, there are two sides to the RA job: the 鈥榖uilding manager鈥� and the 鈥榗ommunity builder.鈥� Being a building manager is tough: from general upkeep, maintenance follow-ups and enforcing rules to generally being the go-to reliable question-answerer for 32 students. However, these duties are also meaningful ways for me to constantly build my resourcefulness, problem-solving skills, and accountability. As a community builder, I get to bring people together in fun ways, by making the building an extension of campus and a place that isn鈥檛 just for sleep, but is also a place to live and thrive with other students and friends. Being a community builder is very rewarding, and it鈥檚 a fun way to strengthen my leadership and planning skills.
