Peer Mentor
Eku Nova Program
Richmond, Kentucky, United States
As a peer mentor, I take on many roles. During the Fall, I acted as a "professional friend" for first-generation, freshman students and provide them with a support system in their first semester. As a Spring 2023 mentor, I am partnered with the Madison County Public Library and work with a group of 4 freshmen to complete a service project for them. Being able to contribute to the NOVA program and assist them in many ways is so important to me. I am incredibly proud to be a first-generation student and I hope to share that with others.
