Why I want to be a mentor: Moving to the United States by yourself for the first time can be hard and I can tell that by experienced it myself. I became a mentor because I want to use my experiences to help support international students by ensuring that they are living comfortably in the United States and have someone to guide them during their first time here.

Bio: I was born and grew up in Cambodia. I am the eldest child in the family. I came to study in the United States when I was 14 years old; I would say that I am well accustom to the American culture. I am very involved in different student organizations on campus, so if you see me around on campus, come by and say hi.

What is one piece of advice you'd like to give to new Freshman: Be yourself and try to experience as many things as possible.

Best place to eat in Indianapolis: I would say Magoo's California Pizza is the best place to eat in Indy.
