De Jesus

Hello everyone, my name is Erick Oquendo De Jesus. I am a wildlife ecology major with a concentration in conservation biology. I am a transfer junior at UMaine and moved here from Connecticut. I currently work as a Peer advisor at the Career Center, where we can help students with their resumes, cover letters, careerlink, and even LinkedIn. My role is to help students with these services while offering the point of view and comfort of being one of their peers.
