| Dr. C. Inez Anders Executive Director
| Hi Everyone, I’m Dr. Inez and have been working with the tutoring program in the AATC for over 9 years. I'm aggie alum, as I've recently completed EdD in Educational Leadership. My dissertation is a conversation between me and other tutoring center professionals about equity in their work. I look forward to seeing you all in the tutoring pedagogy course each quarter and serving as a support for you all in the important work you do to offer academic support to your peers. Love getting visitors and happy to chat about how you frame your work as tutors to transition into your career or grad school. You all do important work and I’m proud to work alongside you. |
| Katie Pinkston Assistant Director of Tutoring
| Hi, AATC Tutors! Please call me Katie or Katie P. I’ve been the Assistant Director of Tutoring with AATC for 2 years, but I’ve been working in collegiate tutoring programs for much, much longer. I started as a student peer tutor just like you and developed a passion for listening to college students and supporting their particular needs. I’ve stayed in tutoring because I love continuing to learn with tutors and feel honored to work with a community of people dedicated to providing support for the whole student. I love getting to work with you all in our Foundations for Tutoring class each quarter and seeing you out and about in our tutoring spaces. I am thrilled to talk shop any time you want to stop by my office.

| Sydney Lane Finance and Business Coordinator | I am Dr. Sarah Sydney Lane, but please call me Dr. Lane or Sydney. Originally from Virginia, my path has always been guided by curiosity and a love for interdisciplinary thinking. I hold a PhD in English from UC Santa Barbara, where my research focused on eco-psychoanalysis and speculative fiction, an MSc in Theoretical Psychoanalytic Studies from University College London, and a BS in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation from the University of Florida. These diverse areas of study reflect my belief in the transformative power of literature—especially narratives and poetry that explore identity, attachment, and our shared planetary future. I’ve been at UC Davis since 2022, when I began my MFA in Creative Writing and started teaching undergraduate workshops in poetry and fiction. After graduating, I joined UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education as a Student Services Program Assistant. I’m now thrilled to be part of the AATC team, where I support your work as tutors in my role as Financial and Business Coordinator—most importantly, by making sure you get paid accurately and on time! I also help manage tutor hiring, track hours, oversee budgeting for the tutoring program, and make sure we’re staying on top of travel, events, and all the behind-the-scenes details that help things run smoothly. Basically, I’m here to make sure the logistics don’t get in the way of the great work you’re doing with students. A fun fact about me: I once trekked through the rainforests of Borneo caring for a mischievous baby sun bear as part of a wildlife rehabilitation program. Eleven-hour jungle hikes, radio tracking, and bottle of honey included! |
| Heather Sturman Writing Tutor Recruitment Coordinator | My name is Heather, I use she/her pronouns, and I’m also a Writing Specialist here at the AATC. Originally from southern California, I’ve been at UCD since 2007, when I started my PhD program in Linguistics. After I graduated, I started working at the AATC in 2013, and I’ve been here ever since! A fun fact about me: When I was 10 years old, Nickelodeon selected a short story of mine to be animated. Then on a family vacation to Orlando, I got to record voices in a recording booth and got a behind-the-scenes tour of Nickelodeon studios. Unfortunately, my story didn’t end up being aired, but it was still a neat experience. |

Content Review Leaders
Our amazing Content Review Leaders host AATC Content Reviews weekly. They work hard to ensure that students are getting the support they need with course material. Content reviews are a great resource for those looking to work with a tutor, go over course concepts, and do practice problems!
