Sierra Perez

Senior Assistant Director, Graduate Admission

Formerly from Seattle, WA, I completed my B.S. Degree in Biology at the University of Washington. After mentoring and advising my STEM peers, I obtained my Master’s in Higher Education (M.Ed.) at Central Washington University with an oral defense focused on inclusive advising.

I have since served professionally as a pre-health advisor at Brandeis University and an assistant director at UMass Chan Medical School. I am proud to have found my career niche through the New England Association for Graduate Enrollment Management (NEGAP).

With professional experience covering the entire lifecycle of a university student, from admissions application to degree graduation, I consider myself a specialist for access and belonging in higher education. Outside of the office, I love drinking coffee by the gallons and going on foodie adventures around the city.
