Meet sustainability alumna Diane Trimble
July 12, 2018
Diane Trimble now has two degrees from Arizona State University, but the journey to those achievements wasn’t easy. Trimble dropped out of college in Nevada in the mid-1990s, but in recent years, she wanted to become a better role model for her sons and community. Thus, she enrolled in online classes at Arizona State University through the Starbucks College Achievement Plan partnership and earned a bachelor’s degree in organizational leadership in 2016. But she didn’t stop there. This year, Trimble graduated from the Executive Master of Sustainability Leadership (EMSL) program in the School of Sustainability.
We asked Diane questions about how her ASU education has changed her life for the better and what sustainability means to her.
Question: What was your “aha” moment when you realized you wanted to study the field you majored in?
