Lola is incredibly compassionate, smart, and helpful. She has been particularly helpful with issues that have been specific to me as someone who is multicultural. She is very aware and insightful of the difficulties of cultural adjustments and shock, uprooting, and staying in touch with one’s cultural background. She is mindful and understanding of the complexities of culture and the different backgrounds that people have. She is also very responsive and caring, and has truly been a helpful guide in my life.
