Academic Advising
The Success Studio encourages, guides, and supports students, helping them navigate the college experience. Student Success Advisors are available to answer questions and connect students with resources across the Wentworth community. Additionally, Student Success Advisors provide the following:
Degree Planning and Registration
Degree Planning is one of the primary services provided by Student Success Advisors. This is especially helpful for students that are out of sync with the curriculum and need to develop a customized curriculum plan. Student Success Advisors are also available to assist students with various registration needs.
Success Workshops
Each semester, Student Success Advisors offer skills workshops, helping students develop their organization, notetaking, study, and time management skills. Students may also schedule one-on-one Academic Skills appointments at any time.
Customized Success Plans
Student Success Advisors develop customized success plans to help address individual students' concerns and are tailored to target the areas in need.

Student success advisor for the school of Architecture and Design. After graduating with a Master’s in public health from Boston University, I was drawn to the Success Studio for their approach of treating students holistically, recognizing how everything outside of the classroom can impact academics. Since joining the team, I have had the opportunity to speak with students regarding time management, academic success plans, career goals, and the importance of mental health. When I am not at WIT, I enjoy reading, grabbing food with friends, going to concerts, and running!

Student success advisor for the school of Architecture and Design. My favorite thing about the Success Studio is our dedication to supporting students holistically as they navigate college. I love talking to students about their passions both at Wentworth and outside of school and want students to know that my office is a safe space where we can talk about and work through challenges together. I love music, theatre, reading, and spending time with my friends and family.

Student Success Advisor for the School of Computing and Data Sciences and School of Sciences and Humanities. My favorite part of my job is being able to meet and work with so many bright, kind, and ambitious students. My background is in Psychology and Sociology, and after graduating from Emmanuel College, I went to the University of Rhode Island for my Master's in College Student Personnel. I bring my own personal queer and neurodivergent identities to my work in holistically supporting students of all identities, cultures, and experiences. I have a passion for live music, and have been to over 100 concerts, festivals, and events!

Student Success Advisor for the School of Engineering. I am proud to be part of the Success Studio to provide guidance and resources for students who embody many intersectional identities. I want to create safe spaces for the community so everyone can be themselves and strive for success. Off the clock, I love to dance and enjoy arcade entertainment. I also love trying new things with my family and friends.

Student Success Advisor for the School of Computing and Data Science. I was drawn to the Success Studio for their holistic advising approach, making sure to treat students as a whole and not only focus on what is happening in the classroom. I work with a caseload of students to help guide them towards achieving their academic and personal goals. This includes helping students understand their curricula, providing academic coaching for students who wish to develop new academic strategies, and working with students to make the most of their experiences at Wentworth.

Helping our students navigate their individual challenges during their time here and seeing how a Wentworth education transforms their lives and their families' lives is a joy. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, bicycling, and genealogy research.
