Hello! My name is Chandra Slonecker. My pronouns are she/her, and I am the Peer Assistant for the TRIO SSS Transfer Transition Seminar! I am a first-generation transfer student, and am currently in my Junior year. I am a Family and Human Services, Prevention Science major. I am also minoring in Nonprofit Administration. In the future, I plan to contribute to the improvement of people’s quality of life through both research efforts in Prevention Science, and local nonprofit work.

I’m originally from the tiny coastal town of Florence, Oregon, but have lived in Eugene for the past 17 years. I love hiking, cooking, dancing, reading, trying new restaurants, drinking coffee, and going on little adventures with my friends.

This will be my first year as a PA. I am especially excited to connect with and assist fellow non-traditional, first-gen, and transfer students! I think that building community can really help us through the most challenging elements of school. I love people and am always happy to chat and share anything about my own experience that might be helpful to others. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!
