 Why did you become an academic advisor?

I became an academic advisor after having a good experience with my Academic Advisor as an undergraduate student at NMSU. I saw the opportunity to work closely with students to broaden their knowledge of degree plans and offer my expertise as an alumni to help students reach their academic goals.
