Meet the Connectors
Lani Robadue
CLARK HALL 305
413-585-6230
Lani has worked in higher education for a little over 10 years, as an adviser, mentor, and coach, and has recently moved to the Pioneer Valley from the Providence area. In her most recent positions as an academic adviser, she's provided supportive mentorship and burnout coaching for her students, taking advantage of her background in student wellness and mental health first aid. Her favorite part of working with students is building relationships and providing a safe space to ask questions, no matter how silly they may seem. She is excited to join the Smith Connectors this year, and more specifically, to help students make meaning of their experience at Smith College and to truly make this experience their own.

You’ve Got Questions
“I am not sure if you are the person to ask this, but ...”
Many times in our meetings with students, we hear “I am not sure if you are the person to ask, but ...” and that is exactly why we are here. We might not have the specific answers to all of your questions, but we can serve as a starting point to get you connected to the people who do.
As you grow and learn more about what you would like to do in the world after Smith, we can have bigger conversations about how to help you get there. In the meantime, we can also have the smaller conversations about how to connect you to resources and opportunities now to situate you for success as you figure it out.
