Anisia Khammala, Academic Coach - Rainier Scholars


Christopher Clay - PS Alum
Anisia Khammala, Palmer Scholars 2019























When did you start at Palmer Scholars?

Class of 2019 from Franklin Pierce High school. Graduated from Gonzaga University c/o 2023.


Where are you currently in your life?

I’m approaching two years post-grad and working my first “big girl job” as an Academic Coach with Rainier Scholars - Tacoma. I chose to come back home to be with my family and give back to the community that raised me.


What advice do you have for current and future scholars?

Advice I have for current & future Palmer Scholars is, enjoy your experiences and make the most of them. You are in a time of exponential growth, I challenge you to try new things, do things you’ve always wanted to do and even do things you’re afraid to do.

 SUPPORT OUR MISSION TODAY!

Palmer Scholars acknowledges that our work is carried out on, and our office space is located within, occupied Coast Salish land, specifically that of the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. We pay respect to Coast Salish Elders past and present and extend that respect to their descendants and to all Indigenous peoples. To acknowledge this land is to recognize its longer history and our place in that history; it is to recognize these lands and waters and their significance for the peoples who lived and continue to live in this region, whose practices and spiritualties were and are tied to the land and the water, and whose lives continue to enrich and develop in relationship to the land, waters, and other inhabitants today.

 

We also pause to recognize and acknowledge the labor upon which our country, state, and institutions are built.

We remember that our country is built on the labor of enslaved people who were kidnapped and brought to the U.S. from the African continent and recognize the continued contribution of their survivors. We also acknowledge all immigrant labor, including voluntary, involuntary, trafficked, forced, and undocumented peoples who contributed to the building of the country and continue to serve within our labor force. We acknowledge all unpaid care-giving labor.

 

To the people who contributed this immeasurable work and their descendants, we acknowledge our/their indelible mark on the spaces in which we operate today. It is our collective responsibility to critically interrogate these histories, to repair harm, and to honor, protect, and sustain this land.
