Co K-12
Director 

Kai Schelly
“Hi y'all 🌸! I'm Kai, and I'm the new K-12 Recruitment Co-Director. I'm from Los Angeles and I'm half Japanese and half Ashkenazi Jewish. MRRC has been like a family to me since I joined my first semester at Cal, and I'm so grateful to be with them as I start my second year as a molecular and cell bio and applied math double major. A couple fun facts about me are that I only know how to cook with a deep fryer, I've started learning how to play the bass, and I have read way too many webtoons. I look forward to meeting y'all soon, and getting to grow my mixed fam with some new MRRC friends!”

Operations
Director

Christian Kazianka
“Hello friends! My name is Christian Kazianka and I am the current Operations Director. I am a third-year from Lompoc, CA and am double majoring in Political Science and Psychology. I was introduced to MRRC when I attended Senior Weekend in the spring before my freshman year and subsequently became a K-12 Recruitment Intern and Community Development Intern, which is where I really got to know the staff and mixed community members on campus and the importance of the work that we do. I love the MRRC community and have enjoyed every second of our time spent together! I hope to see many of you virtually at our programs and events throughout the semester, as fellows or community members! A fun fact about me is that I have a pug named "Pugsly" and a golden retriever named "Pedro" 🐕

Executive Director​

Gen Slosberg
Hi all! I'm Gen, a third year studying Political Science and minoring in Global Studies - the Americas. I'm from Guangzhou, China but came to Cal by way of Orange County, CA. I have the distinct privilege and pleasure of serving as the Executive Director of MRRC this year, and I could not be more excited to get to know each of you, our community members! Outside of MRRC, I am working as a part-time program associate at China:SF, a nonprofit that seeks to build business connections between China and the SF Bay Area. I am also working on my thesis this year, and I will be writing about Chinese investment in Latin America. Talk to me about all things international affairs, social justice activism, and Jewish or Chinese culture!

Recruitment Director

Katie Suzuki
Hey y’all! My name is Katie and I’m delighted to be the Recruitment Director for  MRRC. This is my 3rd year at Cal and I’m currently pursuing a Global Studies Major with an Emphasis in Peace and Conflict. Before Cal, I grew up in Playa Del Rey, Los Angeles (any Westside LA People hmu!) When I’m not working on recruiting new members of MRRC, I enjoy playing my guitar and ukulele, swimming, playing water polo, and doing yoga. I'm also working in a sub-project of the Berkeley Anti Trafficking Coalition (BATC) known as the Coffee Project! I can’t wait to see what our team will accomplish this year, and hope that you join us too!

Operations Director

Christian Kazianka 
Hello friends! My name is Christian Kazianka and I am this year's Operations Director. I am a second-year undergraduate and I am currently planning on double majoring in Political Science and Psychology. I was introduced to MRRC when I attended Senior Weekend in the spring before my freshman year and subsequently became a K-12 Recruitment Intern and Community Development Intern, which is where I really got to know the staff and mixed community members on campus and the importance of the work that we do. MRRC has been one of the few places here that have offered me a space to be my true self, and I am honored to have been given the opportunity to offer this same sort of feeling to other students. I am almost always working (you’ll probably see me driving a little blue golf cart around campus lol), but if I do have free time then I like to spend it laying in bed watching Netflix, eating burritos or drinking smoothies, taking strolls around campus and Downtown Berkeley, or spending time with friends.

Transfer Retention Director

Austin Moon
Hi everyone! I’m Austin Moon and I am the transfer Retention Director for MRRC 2019! I am a senior Philosophy major on a pre-law track. Originally from sunny Southern California where we rarely say hella and the traffic never ends. I have staffed political campaigns for work, and am quite a good chef if I do say so myself. Find me around campus and introduce yourself I’d love to chat.

Transfer Recruitment Director

Wafaa Elshawarbi
Greetings friends! As MRRC’s Transfer Recruitment Director, I help students find their way to 4-year institutions, and if they’re interested in attending UC Berkeley, I make sure they get everything they’d need to attend, as well as let them know of opportunities (including MRRC Fellowships).
I am a first-generation spring-admit junior-transfer from Ohlone College, and I’m currently majoring in Legal Studies; with an interest in Criminal Law. I’m hoping to help people of color that have been wronged by the system, especially juveniles who have been treated unfairly because of how they look, where they’re from, and the color of their skin.
My current hobbies include making music, staying up until 3 am for no reason, and watching Grey’s Anatomy for the 4th time on Netflix.

Community Development

Susana Torres
Hi all! I’m Susana, MRRC’s Community Development director. It’s my 3rd year at Cal majoring in Physics. Outside of MRRC and classes, I research ‘quantum materials’, compete on Hispanic Engineers and Scientists’ intramural soccer team, and act as Research & Blog Editor for the Berkeley Scientific Journal.  MRRC has become a very special place for me on campus, and I hope it can become special for you too!

Hey y’all! My name is Katrina and I’m one of the K-12 Recruitment Co-Directors for MRRC this year. I am originally from Santa Clarita, CA and am currently a second year studying Political Science with a minor in Education. Tentatively, I’m on a pre-law track with the goal of getting into educational law. In my free time, I enjoy being crafty through music, art, and design.
