CHICAGO BRIDGE PROGRAM MENTORS

Claudia Guzman


Claudia Guzman
My name is Claudia Guzman and I am currently a sophomore at DePaul University majoring in secondary education with a concentration in history. I am from the South-side of Chicago, and I attended De LaSalle Institute for high school. I love getting involved and staying active. Currently at DePaul I am involved in Blue Crew, U-Min, Greek Life, and hopefully Jumpstart. This is my first year as a Bridge mentor and I really look forward to it.

Melody Johnson


Melody Johnson
My name is Melody Johnson and I am a third year student. My major is accounting and finance with a minor in sales leadership. I am a former college bridge student, as I began the program in 2003 at Daley College. The last three college bridge classes I took were at DePaul University. Taking these bridge classes helped me save money and gain exposure to the college environment. I am now an active member of NABA and the DePaul Investment Club. This is my second year as a mentor and I look forward to being a mentor again this year.
