Honors Peer Advisors

 

Julie Bergmann, 4th year, Classics

Hi there DHCers!! My name is Julie Bergmann and I am a 4th year in the Davis Honors Challenge. So a little bit about me: my favorite word is awesome (or amazing, it is the same word in many languages) and I say: like, for sure, and man, all the time. I have had 6 different majors and just as many ideas for potential careers. However, I will graduate this year with a degree in Classical Civilizations with a focus in philology (aka languages). After spending some time in Tanzania, I decided that I may wish to pursue a career in medicine/public health and thus I took the MCATs, and after a summer in Greece, I am now interested in archaeology (so, I am going to apply to both sets of schools). Thus, as one of your DHC Peer Advisors, I would love to talk to you about majors or careers, for I have tried many. Also, I volunteer for Clinica Tepati, I am the Vice President of Classical Studies Association; I participate in Athletes in Action and numerous honors societies. So, if something similar to these interests you or you just want to know how to get involved, I’d love to talk with you. I look forward to meeting you this year, so please stop in the student office and say hi!

 

Kaylan Christianer, 4th Year, Neurobiology Physiology and Behavior

Hello! My name is Kaylan Christianer (pronounced “Chris-G-an-er”) and I am a fourth year Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior major. I love art, but can’t draw, so I decided to take on a minor in Art History to satisfy my (talentless) passion. After graduating, I plan on entering medical school and studying for the next 20 years. As one of your DHC Peer Advisors, I am here to answer any of your questions, whether they are regarding DHC requirements, academic confusions or general college life! In addition to working with DHC, I am also involved in Clinica Tepati and am an intern with the Neuroimmunology Department at the UC Davis Medical Center. I spent some time in Mexico last summer and now one of my life goals is to become fluent in Spanish. I love meeting new people, so please come say hello during my office hours or at a DHC event!
