Bio

Pronouns: She/Her/Hers

As a third-year Accounting and MIS student, I have been actively involved in Next Generation of Accountants and Delta Sigma Pi, striving to foster professional growth and engagement among my peers. My leadership experience has enabled me to seamlessly transition across various roles on campus, including serving as a Resident Assistant, where I was honored as RA Staff of the Year (2023), and as a Teacher’s Assistant for Applied Calculus. With my passion for leadership and professional development, I continuously seek opportunities to grow and give back to the communities that have supported me.

Platform

As a business student, I am committed to strengthening connections between student organizations and preparing students for their careers. I will be focusing on collaboration across clubs and career readiness, creating a more united and professionally driven campus community.    By building stronger bonds between student organizations, it will increase leadership opportunities, engagement, and foster a closer network between students. I will encourage joint events, shared resources, and cross-club initiatives that allow students to gain diverse experiences outside of their primary organizations. Whether through panel discussions, networking socials, or skill-building workshops, my goal is to bring students together, fostering a more supportive and dynamic environment.    Career preparation is essential, and I will advocate for expanded access to resume workshops, mock interviews, and mentorship programs. Strengthening ties with alumni and industry professionals will provide students with insights into their fields and open doors for internships and job opportunities. Additionally, collaborative career development events will ensure students across all business disciplines gain the skills and connections needed for success.    By fostering club collaboration and prioritizing career development, I aim to create a unified, engaged, and professionally prepared student body. If you are interested, please support me in creating lasting connections in Saunders.
