Cardinal Quarter Peer Advisors
Cardinal Quarter Peer Advisors are students who have participated in the Cardinal Quarter program and who are eager to help fellow students navigate the process. Please see below for their drop-in advising hours. They are excited to meet with you!

Adri Kea Arquin, '26 (Earth Systems, Economics)
Hey! I’m Adri, and I’m a junior majoring in earth systems and economics, originally from Minnesota. I am fascinated by our global transition away from fossil fuels and the economics and social justice associated with solving the climate crisis. During my freshman summer, I completed a Cardinal Quarter at an energy policy firm, which had a tremendous impact on my academic and career journey. Last summer, I worked in the Biden-Harris Administration's Climate Policy Office as a member of the White House Internship Program focusing on industrial decarbonization and workforce development. I am happy to share my journey through community service, advocacy, and policy work across numerous fields both at and away from Stanford. I hope I can help you to find, design, and execute a Cardinal Quarter experience that can shape your Stanford and public service journey.

Langston Buddenhagen, '25 (Political Science & Urban Studies)
My name is Langston, and I'm a current senior studying urban studies and public policy. I was born and raised in Oakland, California, a diverse hotspot of community activism, service, and changemaking. As a young man of color from an urban environment with such a unique history, equitable public service that uplifts marginalized communities has always been extremely important to me. This is my third year working as a peer advisor, and I have completed Cardinal Quarters over two summers as a policy intern with the San Francisco District Attorney's Office and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This past summer, I traveled across the African continent under the VPUE Major Grant for Undergraduate Research collecting data for my Urban Studies capstone project on neighborhood change in African capitals. I'm excited to share my background and experience with anyone interested in learning more about Cardinal Quarters, law and policy, urban studies, and pathways of public service at Stanford.

Enrique Flores, '24 (Political Science), MA '25 (Sociology)
Hey! I’m Enrique, and I’m currently co-terming in Sociology after finishing my BA in Political Science in the spring. I also completed another Cardinal Quarter this summer -- the Human Rights Fellowship at United Nations Development Programme which is located in Geneva. I am stoked to be a peer advisor again this year for Cardinal Quarter. I had a phenomenal time interning during my Cardinal Quarter experiences and am ecstatic to continue giving back to the Cardinal Quarter community. I hope that through my role as a peer advisor, I can help you find opportunities in public service that align with your future goals!

Larissa Scott, '25 (Human Biology)
I am a current senior studying human biology and minoring in education. I am particularly interested in Tribal epidemiology and community health. I come from the Navajo and Winnebago Nations, growing up in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Through the Indigenous Communities Fellowship (ICF) with Cardinal Quarters, I had the opportunity to intern with an Indigenous-run organization providing mental health programming and services for Indigenous high school students in Santa Fe, New Mexico. This experience deepened my commitment to working with Tribal communities and solidified my aspiration to address health inequities. As an ICF and Cardinal Quarter peer advisor, I am excited to share my background and experience with students who are passionate about community-based service. I hope to help others navigate the diverse programs available through Cardinal Quarters to find an opportunity that aligns with personal and career goals.
