" My Goal was to always work in Higher Education. I love helping people and giving back to students because I was once a student and I know how tough school can get. I want to be able to provide help that I couldn't find when I was a student and I will work overtime to provide that change. I love the UROP department, From the staff, Peer Facilitators, Mentors and students we're becoming a family."
