Peer mentoring has been a deeply meaningful experience for me. I serve as a year-long peer mentor for VIP (Volunteers in Partnership) and CWC (Colorado Women’s College) and worked as a Summer Link Coordinator for a week over every summer. Even after the program ended, I continue to be a resource for many of those students. Mentorship allows me to foster meaningful connections, empower others through shared experiences, and help build a sense of community. It’s incredibly rewarding to make a lasting impact, reaffirming my passion for leadership and service. I plan to continue doing this as long as I possibly can as it is a crucial component in my life!
