Norco College Alumni Spotlight (2020)

I am a senior at UCLA and transferred from Norco College in 2018. My major is biology and I am also pre med, hopefully, a future psychiatrist. At Norco, I was a math and chemistry tutor at the LRC and a member of Phi Theta Kappa and the Honors Program. At UCLA, I am currently involved in clinical research at the medical school and also work as a mentor to students at Glendale College through UCLA's Center for Community College Partnerships. I was once a mentee through the same program in 2017 2018 and I believe the mentorship they provided was a major factor in my ability to navigate the transfer application and be confident I would succeed once I transferred. I had the best mentors myself and hope to be as great as they were. Feel free to ask me any questions about the transfer process, CCCP, or my experience at UCLA!

Fun fact: my favorite show is Doctor Who, very STEM!
