My name is Carla Paulina, and I\u2019m originally from Mexico City. I\u2019m currently enrolled in the Supply Chain Management graduate program, after completing my first year in the Hospitality &amp; Tourism Management program. I have a strong passion for baking and creating innovative pastry products, and my background in gastronomy has shaped my love for developing new ideas and constantly expanding my skills.

I also hold an Advanced Diploma in HR from Niagara, and I\u2019ve been a proud student staff member for just over a year. Outside of school and work, I\u2019m passionate about archery. It\u2019s my way to unwind and refocus. My time at NC has been and is filled with growth, opportunity, and plenty of laughs along the way.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Favourite NC Memory <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            One memory that still makes me laugh was working on the NC Engage app and testing the block feature with my boss, Marilia. We both had the same thought and blocked each other! Aside from that, being elected President of HR@NC and launching the Debate Club at the DJP campus have been huge highlights. Both roles have allowed me to build community and grow as a leader in ways I never expected. The most recent memory I have is of the Student Engagement\/NCSAC Gala at the end of the school year. It was magical to join my friends, coworkers, and other staff and students in a night of excellence, and I found it truly amazing.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Advice or tip for a new student transitioning to NC <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            Niagara College truly helped me step out of my own comfort zone, and that\u2019s where the real growth happened. Whether it was applying for student leadership roles, speaking up in class, or starting something new, I found confidence by just saying \u201cyes.\u201d\r\n\r\nMy advice: don\u2019t be afraid to take chances here. You\u2019ll surprise yourself with how far you can go and what you can achieve when you do.\r\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <div id=\"ncetp-27348\" class=\"nce-transition-peer-item campus-342\">\n            <div class=\"photo\">\n                                    <!--<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Photo of \">-->\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.niagaracollege.ca\/engagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/146\/2025\/07\/10.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Hetvi\">\n                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"details\">\n                <h4>Hetvi<\/h4>\n                <div class=\"campus\">\n                    Daniel J.

There are many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niagaracollege.ca\/engagement\/orientation\/services\/\">easy-to-access college services<\/a> available to help you and your student through the process of transitioning to college.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be confident in their decisions and trust their judgment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allow them to make their own mistakes.

Consider expenses like: tuition, textbooks, residence\/off-campus living, groceries, laundry, etc. If the student needs to get a part-time job in order to offset their expenses, speak with them about how many hours per week they can work that will not disturb their studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking frankly with your student and coming up with a reasonable plan, will reduce stress and tension while
