\"PhotoIvette Amaya of Rutgers University is our Team Leader of the Month! Ivette served four years in the Marine Corps working as a supply admin. She is now studying biological sciences with a minor in nutritional sciences and plans to pursue a career in pharmaceutical research. Rutgers\u2019s Veteran Services Coordinator, Urszula Echols, says, \u201cIvette is a great source of support for her Peer Advisors and has done a thorough job training her team and data tracking. Ivette is an exceptional person and we are very lucky to have her as a part of the Rutgers PAVE Team!\u201d We can add that she has been a hard-working, dedicated Team Leader since she took on the role and has helped take the Rutgers PAVE Team to the next level.<\/p>\n

Ivette credits her experience as a Team Leader with helping her grow as an individual by forcing her to break out of her shell as she\u2019s become more comfortable approaching and talking to people. She says she\u2019s enjoyed talking to fellow student veterans and letting them know about all of the resources available to them, especially since she remembers what it was like her first year in school when she struggled to succeed, in part because she had no mentors to support her at that time. She says that she and her team \u201csee how PAVE impacts people,\u201d and she thinks that has helped the team. Ivette\u2019s total pride for her PAVE team shines through, and it\u2019s clear that the team\u2019s cohesion and success is due in no small part to how well Ivette has led it. We are so pleased with your great leadership, Ivette!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
