Kathryn Kohut (International Program Manager)

Student Services - International Student Center

I have worked in international education for over 15 years and have worked with students from more than 30 

countries. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in International Studies and Russian from the University of the Pacific, and my Master’s in Education from Drexel University. I’ve also been an international student when I studied in St. Petersburg, Russia. I understand how rewarding and challenging it can be to study in a different country. Besides Russia, I lived and worked in Chiba City, Japan for 2 years on the JET Program as an English language teacher. I love traveling, learning foreign languages, playing piano, and enjoying the beaches of Pacifica with my daughters and terrier dog. I’m also a foodie and enjoy trying new restaurants in the Bay Area.

Katie Dominion (International Program Services Coordinator)

Student Services - International Student Center

Hello! My name is Katie Dominion, and I am very excited to be serving international students as the Program Services Coordinator. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Research from the University of California, Santa Cruz and a Master’s in Teaching from the University of San Francisco. As a passionate instructor who has studied and worked in a Spanish-speaking country for several years, I enjoy working with new students and sharing their passions, challenges, and adventures in a new country. In my free time, I love to travel to new places, chat with my friends and family, take dance classes at the YMCA, and hike with my spouse and daughter. I hope we can help you on your academic journey at Cañada College!

Jinmei Lun (Counselor - International Students Program)

Student Services - International Student Center

Hello!  My name is Jinmei Lun, and I am delighted to be an international student counselor at Cañada College. I have over ten years of working experience in the California higher education system. I was a general counselor and an international student counselor at Ohlone College, a Trio counselor at Chabot College, and an academic advisor at San Jose State University. I enjoy working with students and empowering them to succeed.

I am passionate about helping international students because I had similar experiences when I attended a community college as a new immigrant. I received an associate degree in Social Science from Ohlone College then transferred to the University of California, Berkeley to pursue my bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I later earned a master’s degree in Education Counseling and Student Personnel from San Jose State University. I will apply my personal and professional experiences to support our students to the best of my ability in achieving their educational goals at Cañada and beyond.
