Title: Retention Specialist, MESA
Responsibilities: I am enthusiastic about providing support to MESA students. My goal is to serve as a bridge for those who face adversity, by providing them with resources, and a community of STEM mentors. When engaging in these conversations, I take a holistic approach and offer guidance that can help students in STEM achieve their educational goals during their journey to transfer.
