Leadership
I
became a mentor for one incoming Touro University Nevada MSOT student, providing encouragement and
support throughout the transition into graduate school. This process encouraged
me to reach out to someone I never met to eliminate feelings of anxiety
triggered from graduate school stress. I was able to provide an in
depth response to questions and concerns providing the security with words
of encouragement such as "if I can do it, anyone can do it." I feel
that having a second year mentor would have made the transition to graduate
school a smoother process, understanding the expectations of the coursework
from a student's perspective.
