Peer Advising

What are your plans for the future?

My plan for the future is to graduate from UL, possibly with being well recognized for my leadership on campus and then receiving a really good job working in the lab as a chemist.  

What are you looking forward to most as a Peer Advisor?

I am looking forward to bonding with my coworkers and being able to happily help and speak to freshmen and other students with any wonders they have.  

What is one thing you wish you knew about UL when you started school here?

One thing that I wish I knew was that tutoring is not this scary, bad place and it's actually quite fun and helpful and you shouldn't feel ashamed about going.
