What are college?

your

goals

after

A goal that I would like to achieve after college is to find a career that is both challenging and fulfilling. Directing a leadership camp, working for a non-profit and being a part of the lives of high school students, in some capacity, are desires that are currently at the top of my list. I also have the goals to live out of the country to get know another part of the world, to attend graduate school, to make giving back an even larger focus in my life and to make my parents proud of the person I have become.

How do you want to make a difference?

First and foremost, I want to make a difference by always being actively in pursuit to be a good person. I value a positive attitude,

good manners, kind words and acts of kindness. Green initiatives, equal rights campaigns and leadership development for high school students are the three causes I feel the most passionate about working toward. I would love to make a difference by volunteering or having a career centered on making a difference in these areas.

How do you want your campus to remember you?

I would like to be remembered as a person that simply cared; as someone who cared about her fellow classmates, her studies, her job, coworkers, professors, friends, family, the university, the community, the environment, her desire to make a difference and her life goals.

Favorite quotation:

I saw this on a billboard and have always loved it: “Aspire to inspire before you expire.”

the style of leadership i would most identify with would be an “inclusive style.”

when working with a team, i feel it’s important for the whole team to be involved with decision-making, planning and execution of an event or project.”
