Being a first-generation college student, I thought you had to be a doctor or a lawyer to excel at a higher education institution. So, when my grades started plummeting I went to my academic advisor to drop out - and that’s when she told me, there so many avenues you can take! Her support is the reason why I graduated and propelled me into the world of higher education and student affairs. If you ever need help with: - Resumes, cover letters, or applying to graduate school - Exploring different majors & careers - Anything career related or just want to speak with someone about navigating the University of Iowa as a first-generation college student… I am here for you!
