John Medina

Assistant Director of First Year Success

I want to share my expertise in navigating BU and its many resources. As a first generation undergraduate and graduate student, I heavily relied on strong relationships with professors and other mentors at school to meet my needs. By leveraging my connections with multiple offices on campus, I was able to do partake in multiple high impact practices such as chemistry research opportunities, TA/tutoring jobs, and studying abroad in Italy. I want to pay forward the support I had to other students as they figure out their goals.
