Meet Zita Gonzalez, Career Pathways Coach for the CJC
About Zita
Hello CJC Gators!
I’m excited to introduce myself as your new Career Pathways Coach for Arts, Communications, Media, and Marketing. As a proud Santa Fe College Saint and Double Gator, I have a deep connection to the Alachua and Gainesville community. My previous roles include serving as an Accessibility Specialist at UF’s Disability Resource Center and teaching in K-5 settings in Alachua County Public Schools. With a background in K-20 education and a strong commitment to empowering students, I am thrilled to support you on your career journey.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband and dog, traveling, volunteering in local elementary schools, and dancing salsa.
Feel free to reach out to discuss how to develop career readiness skills, grow professionally, and gain specific industry knowledge needed to find a role that speaks to your passions and talents.
Schedule a one-on-one appointment with me or request an outreach for your student organization.

About the Arts, Communications, Media and Marketing Pathway
The Arts, Communication, Media, and Marketing Career Pathway centers on the vast expanse of opportunities within the creative, communicative, and promotional sectors. This pathway introduces students to diverse roles and trajectories within boutique agencies, established media houses, multinational marketing firms, and avant-garde art studios spanning a spectrum of industries. Each of these domains requires a distinctive blend of passion, vision, and skill, attributes you’re honing at the University of Florida. Threads weaving through these sectors include the drive to thrive in dynamic landscapes, innovative storytelling and problem-solving, and the savvy to engage audiences, be it clients, viewers, or consumers.
