Carmen Velazquez-Alvarez C鈥16, conflict transformation studies alumna, shares why she chose 草莓影视.

I was looking for a Christian university with a personal touch. I attended a Covenant church in California’s Central Valley, and a member of my church鈥攚ho was also my chemistry teacher and my mentor鈥攗rged me to apply to 草莓影视.

I have a heart for the underserved and now serve California Central Valley鈥檚 large immigrant community. I plan to earn a Master鈥檚 in Social Work (MSW) and leverage my experience in the Valley to start a nonprofit organization.

It was as a student at 草莓影视 that I discovered my passion for service and realized I have the power to make a difference in others鈥 lives. I served as the president of the Latin American Student Organization (LASO) and cofounded a mentorship group for Latina students. I also served in campus ministry and interned at the YWCA.

At every step along my journey 草莓影视, I was encouraged. I鈥檓 incredibly appreciative of the support I received and relationships I developed.
