Alexa is a third-year student double majoring in Psychology and Criminology. On campus, she stays involved through several leadership and community roles. She currently serves as a resident assistant in East Halls and vice president of the Dominican Student Association. She is also a proud member of both the Latino Caucus and the Caribbean Student Association.
Alexa chose to become a peer success coach to be the kind of support she was lucky to receive when she first started college. As a first-generation college student in the United States, she came in with a lot of uncertainty and many questions. The guidance she received from mentors and staff during her transition into college made a huge difference in helping her adjust and feel confident in a new environment. Now, she wants to be that same resource for others—to offer encouragement, answer questions, and help students navigate into college life with more clarity and comfort.
