I am pursing a bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering. I wanted to be a Peer Academic Coach because, as a minority in a field like Aerospace, you don't really see very many Hispanics. I felt that even though I don't see many people that look like me in lecture halls, I could set the example for younger students who feel the same way. To them I’d say, just because not a lot of people look like you, you still very much do belong, and you are smart enough. I've always had a love for teaching. As a TA and Peer Academic Coach, I can really try to help those in need, just like I needed it when I first entered the university. I am born and raised in Denver, CO, and in my free time I like to work out and play videogames with friends. I also play piano but not very well and have played soccer since age 4, also not very well.Ìý

Hello! My name is Olivia, I'm a 4^th year student, and this will be my 3rd year as a Peer Academic Coach. I wanted to become a Peer Coach to give students the support I wished I had as a first-year student when I was struggling. Academic Coaching was a huge game changer for me, and I wanted to be able to provide that for others. I love sports and I am a hardcore nerd, I enjoy games of all kinds, cooking, and flying. I'm also an avid reader!

I am pursuing an Aerospace Engineering major, minors in Russian Studies and Space. I chose to be a Peer Academic Coach to help other STEM majors work through challenges they are facing. Academic coaching has been helpful for me when working through stresses both inside and outside of school; I want to do the same for others if I can. A few of my hobbies and interests are playing Dungeons and Dragons, video games, MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), reading comics, skateboarding, learning languages, and dancing.Ìý
