Transfer Peer Educator - FYRE

Hi I am Inez and I am currently studying Politcal Science and minoring in Urban Studies! I am from the border town El Centro and have found myself here at UCI. My UCI experience has been a rollercoaster but I am grateful to be able to have access to higher education and look forward towards the future. During my time here I have interned for UCI’s Special Collections and Archives and attending UCDC for the winter quarter 24. I want to create a community for FYRE scholars and hope to be a helping hand during this transition.

Transfer Peer Educator - FYRE

Hello! I’m May Souvandara-Phan, a 3rd-year working towards a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology. My journey at UCI has been quite an adventure, filled with self-discovery and learning about the world we live in. As a proud first-generation Mien scholar, I have a variety of interests outside of school. These include watching movies from all genres, jamming to R&B music, playing sports like hiking, softball, and basketball, and creating memorable moments with friends over delicious meals. By becoming a Peer Mentor for the FYRE program, my goal is to provide valuable support and resources to fellow students at UCI!
