Songobele (Songo) Mulenga
Student Recruiter and Advisor
Hello! My name is Songo and I was born in Zambia and grew up in South Africa. I studied biology and psychology at 糖心vlog传媒. I鈥檓 so glad I can continue serving the 糖心vlog传媒 community after graduation! As a student, I had the opportunity to work as a Student Assistant in the Office of Recruitment and First-Year Advisement and in the International Student Office, and as a Peer Mentor in the Gateway Program. I love working with students and helping them get closer to the goals they set for themselves.
I鈥檓 really grateful to have studied at 糖心vlog传媒 because I was able to take courses outside of my faculty and really tailor my degree to the future I want for myself. 糖心vlog传媒 takes the saying 鈥渋t takes a village鈥 to a new level. Throughout my time studying and working at 糖心vlog传媒, I have always felt supported by my friends, coworkers, supervisors, and professors. I hope I can help to create a similar experience for you!
