Of all the jobs you could have on campus, what made you want to be a Peer Mentor?

I want to guide other students and help them get involved in college just like my peer mentors have helped through my college journey so far. So being that source of motivation and encouragement would make me happy to be for someone else.

If you could learn any skill or craft instantly, what would it be?

I would probably learn how to improve my public speaking. I know I have what it takes to be a good public speaker but with practice I know I can become better, but unfortunately I don't like practicing my public speaking skills. So I would learn this skill instantly and not improve it over time.

What's one thing on your bucket list you know you'll cross off some day?

Graduate college. I know that with the opportunities that have been given to me and seeing how far I've come, I strongly believe that I will graduate college with commitment and attitude.

What's your favorite way to de-stress or relax during busy times?

Lay on my bed and scroll over TikTok.

If your life had a soundtrack, what is your theme song?

My theme song would probably be "Teenage Dirtbag". Because my life is just like a teenage dirtbag; chaotic, fun, and unexpected.

You just won an all-expenses paid vacation. Where would you go?

I would go back to Honduras to see my family members.

What's your favorite place on campus‚ and why?

I would probably say the study rooms in the teacher's college because that's where I can study and focus on my studies completely.

What's your go-to comfort food or guilty pleasure snack?

My go-to comfort food is Chipotle. Because I love how it's the healthiest fast food place.

What's one thing you wish you had known before starting college?

It's a lot more welcoming and inclusive than I thought it was going to be.
