My name is Megan (she/her), and I am majoring in Spanish with a minor in music. I enjoy studying Spanish because it makes my brain function in a different way than any other subject does. In my free time, I like going to Spanish Club, playing volleyball, and working out at IM West. A fun fact about me is that my goal is to be a high school Spanish teacher. I aspire to become an educator that can help every unique student grow, so I am eager to be a SWC mentor!

My name is Karissa Zarate (she/her) it is my third year here at Michigan State and I am majoring in Spanish. As a native Spanish speaker, I am passionate about being able to help and facilitate the learning aspect of Spanish communication. The Spanish language to me is especially important because, for many individuals, it is the only method of communication. Aside from being in the Spanish Writing Center, I am part of Culturas de las Razas Unidas (C.R.U) as the Dia de la Mujer Chairperson. A fun fact about me is I am ambidextrous! I strive to become the best student, leader, and mentor I can be therefore I am excited to meet everyone!
