Peer Advisor Spotlight: Erika Colvin

 

Hi everyone! My name is Erika Colvin, I am a Senior, Finance major and I serve as one of the Senior Peer Advisors for the 2020-2021 school year! Just a little about myself - I am involved in NABA, NCNW, and I am an affiliate of the Women in Business initiative. Along with that, my advice to new students is to stay involved on campus to build your network. Although we all have one common goal - to graduate, college is a great place to connect with others to assist yourself in being successful in your future endeavors! 

I became a Peer Advisor because I wanted to assist students in being successful throughout their college career by offering advice from my own journey. My favorite thing about the Belk College of Business is that as a student I am offered plenty of professional development opportunities and through different professors, I am given advice from real-world experiences. I highly recommend all students to connect with their professors because you never know what companies or advice, they are willing to offer to their students. In conclusion, I think students should make an appointment with a Peer Advisor because we are here to give you educational advice through our experiences. All of the Peer Advisors are great students who are heavily involved in college, so we are prepared to offer students the best advice!
