September 2024 – December 2024
Serving as a Merrill College Peer Navigator for Fall 2024, I had the opportunity of organizing and leading workshops designed to support 470 first-year Merrill students as they navigated their first quarter at UCSC. Sharing my personal journey—mistakes, achievements, and everything in between—allowed me to connect with students in a meaningful and personal way. It was an incredible experience to offer advice, guide them toward resources I wish I had as a first-year, and provide a foundation for their success at UCSC. Helping others find their path while reflecting on my own has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my time at Merrill College.
Below are the flyers from the workshops I organized and facilitated as a Merrill College Peer Navigator.
