Sheridan earned her undergraduate degree from Saint Mary’s College of California. She began her career as a high school teacher (10 years) and has had the privilege of serving in various roles, including serving as a new teacher mentor, acting as department chair, and implementing curriculum at the district level. It was in teaching, both in urban and suburban schools, that she found her passion for community building, relationship building, and curriculum development. Currently, as Student Experiences Coordinator, she is tasked with planning and facilitating campus visits to introduce students to postsecondary education opportunities.

As a first generation Latinx college graduate, Sheridan is passionate about helping students that are most in need and guiding them to opportunities they may not see as obtainable. In her free time, Sheridan enjoys watching sports, playing basketball, exploring new places, and spending quality time with her two daughters, Kennedy and Camille.
