Shannon Marino

I have been the Program Manager for Student Activities for four years at Lone Star College-Tomball.  I had previously worked at Stephens College, The University of Missouri, and Georgia Tech doing programming and events.  I am married with one little boy who is 9 years old, he loves to play with our cute golden doodle puppy named Gabby.  If you come by the office you will always here me laughing since it is one of my favorite things to do.  I know I have the best Student Activities Staff in the Lone Star System!  My goal is to make the student's college experience as close to a traditional college experience as possible and make the campus feel like a close knit community.

Alex Loera

My name is Alex and I am 20 years old and am currently in my sophomore year of college.  I participate in many of the clubs and activities that go on throughout the whole year at LSC-Tomball.  As a student worker in the Student Activities offices, I not only help out with the activities that are set up for the students but also make video projects with the purpose to either promote Student Activities or clubs.  Besides work, I am also very involved with other organizations in the school.  I am the VP of Student Outreach for the school's Student Government Association, a member of the LSC-Tomball Student Ambassadors and a member of the Student Activities Board (SAB).  I have fun working and being a part of all of these organizations in the school.

Shawnatae Scranton

My Name is Shawnatae Scranton, I started working in Student Activities in July 2008.  I enjoy meeting new people and of course having fun.  While I was a student at LSC-Tomball, I did not participate in activities, but now is my chance to participate.  My life experiences have made me who I am today.

In addition to my day-job, I'm an advisor for the Inkling (LSC-Tomball's creative arts magazine) and I enjoy to painting, gardening, listening to live music, cooking (and eating), and reading a good book. I was once a student here at LSC-Tomball, and though I went on to complete Bachelor's degree in English (and I'm currently working on a Master's degree in Humanities), I'm excited to have the opportunity to partake of the playful side of the school that taught me so much.

Elizabeth Acosta

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              My name is Elizabeth Acosta but everyone calls me Liz. I've been here at LSC-Tomball since last year, and I'm very excited to start the Vet Technician program. In high school, I was always in the shadows, and never really involved, so starting college I decided to change that. I joined the Student Activities Board, and met a lot of fun, crazy people. The next thing you know, I become a staff member.  When I'm not in the office, you can find me in the Student Government Meetings as Vice President of Student Outreach, or playing video games.
