About Me
Hello! My name is Cynthia and I am your 2020-2021 Academic Advocacy Coordinator. This is my first year on the MSS and I could not be more excited to be a part of this wonderful team! Academics play an integral role in the life of a student. As your AAC, I hope to gain a better understanding of your academic concerns so that I can petition for and act in your best interests. In my spare time, I enjoy drinking matcha, eating frozen mangoes, and watching the Great British Bake Off. Looking forward to an exceptional year!

Fun Fact About Me
During my first year at Mac, I was caught in the middle of many many fire alarms. It happened so frequently that I was convinced that I was cursed because fire just seemed to follow me wherever I go.
