Meet Our Mentors

  • Hi everyone! My name is Carissa, and I’m a fourth-year student in Education with a major in English! I decided to become a Peer Mentor because I love volunteering and helping others, especially fellow SFU students! I hope to support and guide you and other new students as you navigate university life. I want to show you that university becomes less intimidating and easier to navigate over time, just as it did for me throughout my own journey. I’m excited to be part of your university experience and help you feel more confident and comfortable along the way!

  • I chose to be a peer mentor because supporting others through stressful or confusing times is something I wanted to be a part of, especially because I was once in their shoes. Being a part of the school community and my passion of teaching is tied to helping students feel empowered and supported.

  • I applied to become a peer mentor because having someone who can support you through the first year is so helpful. I wanted to help other students reduce their confusion and build confidence within themselves and their goals for their next years at SFU.
