Why is being a peer mentor important to you?
Being a peer mentor is important to me because I am able to help other students within the university.
It's great to help other students who struggle with just the basic needs of college.
Because I get to have that one on one contact with students. We get to help incoming freshmen and help motivate them to be involved in things like Student Government!

Why do you recommend that WSU multicultural students use peer mentors?
A peer mentor is defined as a knowledgeable and experienced guide, a trusted ally and advocate, and a caring model.  Being a peer mentor is important to me because I want to be able to help other students and share my knowledge with their secondary education. When I first came to the University there were many people who helped me and now I want to return the favor by helping others.

Why do you recommend that WSU students use Peer Mentors?
We are students! We know the school, and we can give a student a perspective from a students point of view.

What do you like most about working for the Center?
I enjoy working with new students getting to know them and feel the satisfaction that I was able to help them.



Hobbies: 
I love the outdoors!
