Wellness Services PEER
Hi! I’m Sandra Perez-Ariza, a Wellness Services PEER at ECC.
I’m currently studying Communications with a passion for Public Relations and meaningful connections. I love discovering new coffee spots, listening to music and podcasts, and attending campus events that bring students together.
Through leadership opportunities at ECC, I’ve connected with students from many different backgrounds and helped create a welcoming campus community.
As a Wellness PEER, I’m passionate about connection, balance, healthy habits, and making sure students know they’re not alone. Whether you need resources, encouragement, or simply a friendly face, my goal is to help you feel supported, valued, and empowered throughout your ECC journey.
