Hello everyone, my name is Tiffany and I am a senior from central Pennsylvania.  As a first-generation college student, I was pretty clueless as an incoming freshman and found support from my learning assistant at the time. I enjoy helping others and aim to be supportive to you as my LA had been to me. Speaking from experience, all questions are valid questions. I am here to help you transition into this new environment whether you just want to talk, want some advice, or have questions.

Hey y’all, I’m LA Maya! I’m from a tiny hamlet called Brooktondale, NY, near Cornell University. I’m here for the fall and currently searching for internships at medical device companies for the spring. I write for The Poly, so I know a lot about what’s going on around campus. And I’m also around playing classical music a lot of the time. I transferred into RPI from community college last fall and never had an LA to help me, so I’ll do my best to make everything smoother for you. I’m enjoying getting to meet everyone, so I hope you’ll drop by!
