Welcome Student Intern – Mia Brooms

Please welcome Mia Brooms as the new graduate student intern for The Texas Conflict Coach Blog Talk Radio show. She will be working with us during the 2012-2013 school year.

Mia Brooms is currently a graduate student in the Negotiation and Conflict Management program at the University of Baltimore. She is originally from the Island of Barbados but moved to Baltimore three years ago after getting married. She is a full-time employee of the University of Maryland, School of Dentistry where she serves in the Office of admissions as an Academic Program Specialist. Mia is a graduate of the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill campus where she obtained a Bachelors of Science in Management with Honors.

Upon completing her graduate studies it is her hope to work with youth in the community. Mia believes that if people are exposed to conflict resolution at an early age, this could help in curbing the existence of so much of the crime that is present in our society. Young people need the skills to be able to handle and resolve conflict in a non-violent manner. This is her passion and it is her hope to take all the knowledge and experiences gained through the program and develop programs that can help our youth.
Mia is a young, motivated, dedicated, self-disciplined and optimistic individual. She loves life and everything it has to offer and wish she had more than 24 hours in a day to take advantage of her time here on Earth. She is a Christian and enjoys sharing her faith whenever the opportunity is presented. An important aspect of her life is family, her husband Irvin Brooms recently graduated from the University of Baltimore with a Masters in Legal and Ethical Studies. She firmly believes in putting family before everything because without family she is nothing.
