Our dedication to Cheng (CT)

We know that Cheng's passing has not been easy on anyone, but please know everyone here at CeO is here for you any time.

Please feel free to share any memories you have with or about Cheng using the link in our bio and on our stories! Cheng meant a lot to so many people, so we would love to hear any stories you'd like to share.

CeO will be hosting a memorial for CT this fall, and details will be shared soon, so please look out for that as well.

This week’s CeO spotlight is Janelle Campos! ✈️🇯🇵🖇️Jaselle completed an international internship in Japan through the Asia Internship Program (AIP) this past summer. See what her takeaways from the experience were:
“One of the best parts of my internship experience in Japan was how much I grew, not only professionally, but personally. I gained hands-on experience with market research, data gathering, competitor benchmarking, and product sales support. The company I interned with allowed me to build tight-knit connections with other interns and employees. Those relationships gave me extra support throughout my time in Japan and made the experience feel more welcoming.
Some of my favorite memories happened outside of the internship. I loved exploring Japan with friends who were also interning through the Asia Internship Program, trying new foods, shopping, drinking matcha, and stopping at convenience stores for snacks. Those moments made Japan feel even more special because I was not only learning about a new culture, but actually experiencing it with people who were also growing and adjusting alongside me.
I would encourage other students to take part in a program like this because it pushes you outside of your comfort zone in the best way. It gives you the chance to gain career experience, learn about another culture, meet new people, and become more independent.” by @uwceo

This week’s featured CeO scholar is Dora Malonga!!! 🩺🦡❤️
Dora deserves this recognition for her dedication to her campus, her communities in Madison and Milwaukee, and to CeO! Dora is serving her 2nd year as a CeO Peer Navigator where she has excelled in not only being a fantastic mentor but also a caring and supportive co-worker. Dora is starting her first year of the BSN (nursing) program this fall and her acceptance to this highly competitive program is a massive testament to her dedication and passion for her studies and the future state of healthcare.
In addition, Dora is the current President of the Black Student Nursing Association (BSNA) and is the TBSN Student Body President! Dora has also served as a member of MEDLIFE, student council, and volunteered in after school programs where she led fun science experiments through her course Integrated Science 240.
If Dora isn’t studying in the nursing building you might find her out hiking (ask her about her backpacking trip in Yosemite National Park). You’re one of one, Dora! We appreciate you and could not be more proud of how you represent CeO and UW! <3 by @uwceo

This week’s student spotlight is Camila Cortes!!! 🧬👩‍🔬🦷
Camila is entering her 2nd year as a Biochemistry Pre-Dental scholar. Camila spent her 1st year really putting herself out there, asking questions, and getting involved in the various pre-dental organizations on campus. This past January, she did a Dental Brigades trip to Guatemala. Global Brigades is a student-movement non-profit program that helps millions of people around the world obtain access and resources to healthcare. Camila returned from Guatemala and immediately started planning her trip for 2027, where they will go to Belize. Camila is an outstanding, kind, brilliant scholar! If you’re also on a pre-dental path, connect with Camila! by @uwceo

This week’s student spotlight is Barrington Tomlin!!! 📚✏️📝
After initially struggling his first two years and taking a few years off, Barrington came back last fall and finished the academic year with a 3.95GPA. Barrington’s perseverance and the focus he’s had since he came back is admirable. It’s not easy for students to come back to after being out of school for a while but Barrington determination to graduate had him making the right moves. Some time off and taking classes at Madison College got him ready to excel being back at UW. Aside from academic success, Barrington is in a better place and proving he was meant to be here all along. by @uwceo
