“I listen to their troubles and I help just support, acknowledge them where they're at and provide that lift. I hold my hands up to them and give them that encouragement to continue on — that yes, they can do it and yes, to follow your dream.”

Providing students with the lift they need.

Navigating post-secondary education can be complex journey, full of ups, downs, excitement, and doubt. As an Elder on Campus, Nina encourages students to embrace the journey, overcome their obstacles, and accomplish the goals they set out to achieve.

Nina’s compassion, empathy, and genuine care is palpable, it is in the air that occupies the space around her. Students are drawn to her, the comfort she provides, and the encouragement she offers in challenging times.

She is the best cheerleader, advocate, and support for our students, and offers more than our university could possibly ask for.
