I became an advocate to be the resource to students I wish I had as an undergraduate. I want to empower first-gen students to be confident, to reach out, and take advantage of all BU has to offer. In my role I work closely with over 40 students every year, many of whom are first-gen undergraduates. I am here to be a better supervisor for them and a better support person for any first-gen student at BU.
