“I initially decided to become a tour guide as a way to learn my way around campus and acclimate to Jacksonville. I never expected this job to change my outlook in such a significant way. This job has allowed me to build some incredible friendships. Getting to be a part of the college decision making process of prospective students, however small my role, is incredibly rewarding.
