Mia Brizuela

Major: Nutrition

Minor: Phronēsis 

Why Did You Choose This Major/Minor?

I choose my major after being a poli sci major and realizing that law was not something I wanted to pursue as a career. I landed on nutrition due to my background on bringing awareness to underserved communities on healthier eating options, as well as, my own personal experiences surrounding nutrition. 

Honors College: ✅

Live On Campus: ✅

Current Hobbies/Activities?

I love to cook, workout, read, and watch movies. 

Long Term Goals?

Current long term career goal of mine is building up a good network of medical professionals I could look up to as mentors. A short yet still longer term goal of mine is to run 5ks and eventually a marathon or any other (athletic event) 

Why Do you Want to be a Mentor?

I would love to be a mentor because I want to provide mentees with a fresh perspective to which they might not see yet. 

How do You Feel You Would Help Your Mentee?

I feel like I would help my mentee by offering them a support system they might need with there transition from high school to university 

What Advice Would you Give to An Incoming Terry?

The time passes with or without you consciously making decisions it is best to take charge and not be afraid of change but rather embrace it.
