Monique Asselin

UConn School of Social Work

Born and raised in West Hartford, CT, I earned a bachelor’s of fine arts in directing, playwriting, and production (theater) from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. I also have a paralegal certificate from Manchester Community College in Manchester, CT.

I want to join UST to gain the skills to help underserved communities in all aspects of their healthcare. I see healthcare as a whole-person experience. You cannot treat a physical ailment without taking mental health and how the person functions in their daily life into consideration. I want to network with other healthcare disciplines so we can work together to shape the future of healthcare.
