January's 4EK Superstar!


Our wonderful 4EK Superstar for this month is Anya Kroytor.  Anya is from Miami, Florida, and is currently majoring in Psychology at UCF.  She participates in a variety of activities on campus, including the President's Leadership Council, Volunteer UCF in which she is the Director of Mentoring and Literacy, and she is also a resident assistant in the Libra housing community on campus.  Through her involvement Anya plans volunteer events for students that relate to the issue of Mentoring and Literacy, such as helping children from underprivileged areas become inspired and excited to attend college, as well as tutoring for boys and girls clubs.  Through her work as a resident assistant, Anya is able to help freshmen transition from living at home to now living on their own at university.  Another role Anya has taken on at UCF is that of an undergraduate research assistant for the Anxiety Disorders Clinic and the Children's Learning Clinic in the psychology department.

When asked what she loves the most about UCF Anya said, "I love UCF because I have been given so many wonderful opportunities that are constantly shaping my life and guiding me in the direction of my future career. I also love the diversity of people that attend this university and that I am able to meet new people daily."

If you are interested in volunteering with Anya or with any of the Volunteer UCF directors, just go to the website or stop by the cubicle in OSI!
