Olivia Welch
Academic Adviser
Olivia Welch is a student at Texas Christian University, where she is majoring in Biology and Spanish on the pre-dental track, with an anticipated graduation date of May 2029. Originally from Jackson, Tennessee, Olivia attended private school and developed an appreciation for the role that encouragement and individualized instruction can play in a student’s success. She is patient, uplifting, and responsible, and strives to understand each student’s individual learning style so she can explain material in a way that makes sense to them. Olivia wants students to develop a strong understanding of their coursework while building the confidence and independence to apply what they have learned on their own. She encourages students to ask questions, learn from their mistakes, and recognize that making mistakes is an important part of the learning process. Olivia enjoys building supportive relationships with students and creating an environment where they feel comfortable working through challenges and growing as learners.
Outside of the classroom, she enjoys writing, spending time with friends, and being outdoors. She is passionate about sports and played volleyball and ran track in high school. Olivia hopes to pursue a career in healthcare, either following in her parents’ footsteps as a dentist or becoming a physician assistant.
