Peer Mentors
An Oakley's Parliament Peer Mentor offers help and advice to a mentee. Peer mentors have a passion for assisting fellow Pioneers in the College of Professional Education by supporting mentees in the navigation of the university, majors, and co-curricular involvement.
As role models upholding the Pioneer spirit, peer mentors provide support and guidance to each mentee. Mentors are dedicated to mentee success and integration into the Pioneer community.

Morgan Brown
I’m a junior majoring in Education with a focus on EC-6 Core Subjects.
I’m passionate about working with young children and creating engaging, supportive learning environments.
Outside of academics, I’m very crafty — I love making t-shirts, party decorations, and door hangers, which often inspire creative ideas for the classroom.
Sarah Crain
I am a senior at TWU studying Child Development. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and learning.
I currently work with three-year-olds at a nature preschool. Through coursework and my job, I’ve developed a strong foundation in child-centered learning.
I’m excited to be a mentor and to support others on their educational journey.
Gabriela Hernandez
My name is Gabriela, but I go by Gabi. I am studying Early Childhood Education.

I am so excited to be a part of a program that helps guide future educators on their path to success!
RaeLynn McGill
I am a senior currently studying child development on track to be an occupational therapist.
College is more than just learning. It's also about attending events. Often I am in the silent lounge in the library, where I usually spend my time.

Maritza Mena
I am a senior and a first-generation student. I am involved in the President's Leadership Council, Alpha Gamma Delta, TRiO SSS, Omicron Delta Kappa, and COPE Emerging Leaders a year ago. It was a rewarding experience.
My favorite memory at TWU is getting to attend every bingo night at TWU since my freshman year!

Hi! I am a junior majoring in EC-6 Education with a Bilingual certification.
