In May of 2017 Gervais was fortunate enough to travel with the first group that went to Slovenia &amp; Croatia (so she\u2019s super excited to add Bosnia this time!) Then, seven months later she skipped out on the frigid Elsah winter for tropical St. Lucia &amp; Grenada. Just this past spring semester it was a full eight weeks in Ireland with yet another amazing group of students. When Gervais isn\u2019t gallivanting the world with students and professors soaking up as much learning as she can, she is coaching soccer (and most recently basketball) at the College. Gervais has coached soccer for both men and women and every age between preschool and college \u2013 it is her first love. But now with a family, come June, she\u2019ll finally be fully back home with her awesomesauce husband, amazing kids, and cozy cottage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<table class=\"wp-block-table\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Hometown\/State\/Country<\/strong>   <\/td><td>Palos Verdes, CA, USA   <\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Major\/Minor<\/strong>   <\/td><td>Women\u2019s Assistant   Soccer Coach   <\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Why Slovenia, Croatia &amp; Bosnia?<\/strong>   <\/td><td>Why?
