Meet Your Crown Peer Advisors!

ADVISING RESOURCES

The Crown Peer Advisors are undergraduate students who are available as a resource to their peers for basic academic advising. They are trained to assist students through student-to-student interactions and are able give advice based on personal experience. The Crown Peer Advisors will be available every weekday to assist students with tasks like navigating the MyUCSC portal, enrollment (adding, swapping, dropping and editing courses), finding the best GE or elective course for their needs, and connecting them to other resources on campus, etc. Connecting with a Crown Advisor is easy, check out how below!

Sanjam

Major: Computer Science
She/Her/Hers

Hi there! My name is Sanjam and I am a second-year computer science major! As a first-generation college student from the lovely town of Clovis, California, I’m passionate about supporting others through their academic journey. When I’m not hitting the books or working, you can find me playing badminton with friends, entertaining new video games, or planning my next adventure. As a member of the Crown Peer Advising team, I’m here to offer guidance and help you navigate the twists and turns of college life. Whether you need advice on coursework, want to chat about your interests, or just need a listening ear, don’t hesitate to reach out! Looking forward to getting to know you!

Jenna

Major: Biology BS
She/Her/Hers

Hi! My name is Jenna, and I am currently a second-year Biology major from Fairfield, California. I entered UCSC as a first-generation college student, so I can understand how stressful the college process is; I hope to ease the stress and help as much as possible! When I’m not at an A’s game, I’m most likely looking for more records to expand my collection, driving around the city, or at a concert. I’m very excited to be a Crown Peer Adviser and be a helpful resource to anyone in need. Before becoming a Peer Advisor, the Crown Advising team was a beneficial resource as a first-year student, and I aspire to help students in the same way!
