Goss at home as UWC office manager
Margarette Goss.
Margarette Goss, senior office associate, says working with students is the best part of her job.
First impressions matter. That’s why the UWC is delighted that Margarette Goss has signed on as Senior Office Associate.
In that role Goss is often the first person clients see when they walk through the door, as well as the voice they hear when calling for an appointment. Her warm demeanor and confident efficiency put everyone at ease.
“We’re so thankful to have her on board,” says UWC Executive Director Valerie Balester. “She sets just the right tone for the office.”
Goss’ responsibilities include managing the office for a UWC staff that continues to grow. Currently the writing center employs four full-time staff members, several part-time workers, and 36 consultants. She also handles paperwork and administrative tasks for the W course approval process, a job that often puts her in contact with faculty.
Goss, who previously worked at the Texas Transportation Institute, is pleased to be part of the UWC staff.
“I love working at the writing center because I get to interact with the students and consultants,” Goss says. “I’m really in awe of the consultants and the knowledge they have. They’re also a lot of fun and make the writing center a great place to work.”
