My guest today is Jason Tomlinson.
Jason is a career skills advocate, community builder, and master
barber. Jason’s official title at Rockland Community College (RCC)
is “Confidential Assistant to the President”, which entails (other
than being able to keep a good secret), coordinating scheduling and
logistics for the president; representing the college in the
community by building/collaborating/maintaining purposeful
community relationships; and thirdly, addressing student challenges
as a liaison for the president. Jason proudly captures RCC’s motto
“Are we ready for you?” as opposed to what most colleges ask
students “are you college ready?” RCC adapts and develops programs
to meet the needs of a wide range of prospective students.
Experience Jason’s authenticity, compassion and visionary energy,
for he sees endless possibilities in people, situations, and in
life! He acknowledges that he knows what failure is like,
while also knowing the profound power of loving support and feeling
believed in by others, reminding him that so much of this life
journey is bigger than any one of us. Check out the links below for
Jason and all the programs at RCC. Enjoy the
