Hope Llansó

Hope loves how active, enriching, and uplifting the RecWell community is for students and professionals. She appreciates how the department provides a unique setting that blends both professional and student minds working together. Hope enjoys mentoring young adults throughout their professional and personal endeavors and finds that she learns just as much from them as they learn from her. Growing up, Hope was a competitive swimmer for 12 years, but as she got older, she traded in the goggles and cap for more outdoor activities. Knowing the mental health benefits of sunshine, fresh air, and taking breaks from sitting at her desk, she loves prioritizing outdoor activity as much as possible with hiking, running, tennis, and mountain biking. She also enjoys yoga, weight lifting, and daily journaling. Hope also enjoys fashion/portrait photography (hopellanso.com), painting illustrations with gouache, reading, cooking Filipino food, and watching independent and foreign movies.
