51ĀŅĀ×

My name is Tessa Bigler, and I am a Chemistry major here at 51ĀŅĀ×. I am entering my final year at OU, and I am originally from Ashland Ohio. Iā€™m honored to be working with the Veterans Center as a Military Community Advocate (MCA), where Iā€™ll be working closely with Counseling and Psychological Services to support and uplift our veteran and military-affiliated students. Iā€™ve been a member of the Ohio Army National Guard since I was 17 and am nearing the completion of my six-year contract. My time in the military has shaped my passion for helping others and leading by example, and I look forward to bringing that same commitment and energy to this role.
