Payton Harris

Hi everyone! I am a senior majoring in Nutrition and Dietetics with a minor in Public Health. I chose to study nutrition because of my love for health and wellness. Learning about how food is our friend and how much it fuels us throughout our daily lives has improved the way I live my own life, and I hope to share that knowledge with others in my future career. 

This will be my first year as a Peer Mentor! I spent my summer as an academic preceptor and as an intern at Tucson Village Farm. I also currently work part-time as a teacher's assistant and as a dietary aide at a local hospital. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, going on sunset walks, and going on movie dates with my husband! I'm here to provide a welcoming space for any questions or much needed vent sessions, and to help make your experience here at the UA go as smoothly as possible. 

I hope to support you as you navigate college, work toward your goals, and make the most of your time at UA! Book an appointment with me or swing by my office hours in the Forbes Lobby: 

Mondays: 10:00 a.m - 12:30 p.m & Thursdays: 1:00 - 3:00 p.m
