April Hughes

Assistant Professor

I wanted to become a Terrier F1RSTS Advocate because I was a first generation college student and I’m the first PhD in my family. So I know what it is like to not even know what questions I should be asking. I was fortunate to have good mentors and I would be happy to pay that forward to others pursuing their BA or graduate degree.
