Meet the IC Peer Mentors

My name is Marsonise, but everyone calls me Marcie. I’m a Brooklyn local, but I’ve realized there’s still a lot I don’t know about the city. I’m an MMC senior majoring in Psychology and Minoring in Art Therapy. This is my third year as a CPM. I’ve learned so much and made many new friendships and experiences in this role. I am also Secretary of the Psych Club; join us as we learn more about psych, give back to the community, and so much more. I love Art and expressing myself in multiple forms, like hair, nails, and SFX makeup.

Hey there!! My name is Ava Koch, I use she/her pronouns and I was born and raised in South Florida. I am currently a sophomore double majoring in Dance with a concentration of Body, Science, and Motion and Human Biology, Health, and Society! I was a part of the First-Generation Cohort my freshman year as I am the first generation in my bloodline to go to college. Some fun facts about me are that I love spending time in nature, I found a passion in cooking since I am celiac and vegetarian, and I am a huge animal lover! Always feel free to come talk to me, I can’t wait for this year to begin!

Hey y’all! My name is Jaiden Lang (she/her). I’m a sophomore with a double major in dance with a concentration in choreography and business management. I was born and raised in Houston, Texas, but am glad to consider New York my new home! A bit about me is that I’m super silly but also know when to be focused. I enjoy being with my friends and being able to meet new people as much as I can. I’m a huge space lover and enjoy anything art related. I’m a first-generation student as well, and I’m super excited to join this amazing group of leaders and meet everyone this coming year!!

Hi! My name is Michelle Ledezma and I am a third-year student majoring in Finance and Management with minors in Accounting and Economics. I am thankful to be at such a diverse and welcoming college, especially as a First-Generation Hispanic student many miles away from home. A fun fact about myself is that I love ducks and peaches!

Helloooo! My name is Olli Miller, I use she/they pronouns and I am from Frankfort, Kentucky but I was meant to be in the city! I am a double major in Business (Arts and Media Management) and TV, Cinema, and Media Studies, with a Music Industry minor (class of 2026). I am so excited to be an IC Peer Mentor after my experience in the First Gen Cohort last year. I love almost all kinds of film (except romance…eek) and music, my favorite artists are boygenius, Billie Eilish, and Greta Van Fleet. In my free time you will normally catch me at the movie theater or sleeping on the streets for snl :) I can’t wait to meet y’all!
