Meet your Career Pathways Coach
Alina Tolentino
Career Pathways Coach – Arts, Communication, Media & Marketing
Hi Gator! I’m the Career Coach for the Arts, Communication, Marketing, and Media (ACMM) pathways at UF. Before joining the Career Connections Center, I spent several years in elementary education and have also worked in the start-up space.
My passion is helping you recognize your potential and confidently navigate your career journey. I connect students with employers, lead workshops, and offer personalized coaching to support you in reaching your goals.
Outside of work, I enjoy running, spending time with my husband and community, and petting my cat, Tommy.
Visit my page to schedule a one-on-one appointment with me or request an outreach for your student organization.
