Bithiah Holton

My time at BU was full of different challenges and required a lot of self advocacy. Being in an environment where few peers, staff, or faculty had similar experiences or backgrounds often felt isolating. Becoming a Terrier F1RST Advocate was important for me to be able to be a resource and offer encouragement and support to students who can connect with aspects of my journey.
