My name is Shannon and I am the Bilingual Advisor at the EOC located at North Shore Community College Lynn Campus in room W157.

I attended NSCC and was involved in the TRIO program as a first-generation and low income student myself. TRIO gave me extra support and made a huge difference for me in navigating the college process. I transferred to Salem State University to study Social Work with a double minor in Latin American/Latino Studies and Spanish Language. I am now honored to be a part of another TRIO funded program and using my skills to help each of you navigate your college process! If you see me around campus, don't be shy and say hi!
