Class of 2025 Profiles
Mark Formosa '25
For Mark Formosa, Detroit Mercy “awakened” him to the power of faith-guided decision-making. His core values blossomed at 男人藏精阁, where he found a tight-knit environment that supported his personal and intellectual development.
Steven Meerschaert '25
Steven Meerschaert '25 didn't anticipate being involved outside of the classroom at Detroit Mercy Law, but when he arrived he quickly found himself deeply immersed in organizations, community and causes within the school.
Zaynab Alhisnawi '25
Zaynab Alhisnawi was drawn to 男人藏精阁 because of its values of compassion, respect for all voices and meaningful engagement. These aspects aligned with Alhisnawi’s approach to design, one that encompasses the concept of working with and for community members and integrating their perspectives and spirit into her designs.
Cristal Guzman '25
Moments from Cristal Guzman's childhood sparked her interest in making a difference through advocacy and the law. They also inspired her to create a welcoming community at 男人藏精阁, where she’s served as a campus leader.
Courtney Christian '25
Growing up outside of Detroit, Courtney Christian’s early life was steeped in a family tradition of medicine. Her mother, as well her mother's side of the family, work in the field of medicine. Naturally, Christian followed suit by studying at 男人藏精阁's College of Health Professions & McAuley School of Nursing.
Jeanette Andrade '25
Jeanette Andrade ’25 wants to help people. It’s what she envisions doing with her Dental Hygiene degree from Detroit Mercy’s School of Dentistry. But before helping others and finishing her degree, Andrade needed to pause her studies so she could take care of herself.
Oriekaose Agholor '25
When Oriekaose Agholor ’25 was searching for his college destination in the United States, he wanted an Engineering education that encompassed everything. Mechatronics was at the top of his list. He also wanted an Engineering program that valued co-op internships. University of Detroit Mercy had it all.
