CHANGEMAKERS

Dear Alumnae Sisters,

Dear NDB Alumnae,

As a proud alumna of our beloved school, I often reflect on how my journey began years ago—not with a grand vision of what high school should be, but with small, meaningful moments: Ding Bat Day, a heated classroom debate, a last minute study session, Aquacades, uniform detention, creating art with Mr. Kortenkamp, or a career day that confirmed my calling. These unique NDB experiences are the foundation of who I am today: a changemaker.

This fall and winter we tip our hats to the changemakers, the trailblazers, the activists and the catalysts of positive change who began their journey at Notre Dame Belmont. From celebrated poets to attorneys and athletes, NDB Alumnae are movers and shakers who create positive change in our world, paving the way for fellow women to rise up as leaders.

As you enjoy hot cocoa and delicious holiday meals with your family this fall and winter, I invite you to pause and offer gratitude for the women of Notre Dame Belmont — the incredible legacy that ignites inspiration and hope in our world. From the bottom of my heart, I thank each and every one of you for leading lives of commitment and purpose.

In today's world, we need changemakers more than ever —individuals who are unafraid to challenge the status quo, to shape the world with integrity, honesty and kindness, to find innovative solutions in the face of doubt. Whether in journalism, schools, athletics, museums, kitchens, government, tech labs, or community organizations, many of us have taken on the responsibility of influencing the world for the better. And because of that we are collectively the changemakers of NDB. Being a changemaker begins with a mindset, one we cultivate here at Notre Dame every day. The spirit of inquiry, the courage to question, the commitment to service. These are not just lessons; they are values instilled in us by this extraordinary community.

To current students and fellow alumnae: I encourage you to embrace that identity. Be bold in your convictions. Lead with empathy. Innovate with purpose.

Advocate relentlessly. Always remember that your voice matters, and the world needs it.

In Notre Dame,

Mary Kmak '84 (P '24, P '26) Alumnae Leadership Board President mskmakdvm99@gmail.com

Cheers, Tigers!

Take Advantage of Every Leadership Opportunity NANCY DILLON ‘90 Senior Reporter, Rolling Stone Nancy Dillon ’90 is a senior reporter at Rolling Stone, primarily focused on the intersection of culture and the civil and criminal court systems. Previously, she was a staff writer at the New York Daily News, where she worked on the metro and national desks, reported from Baghdad in 2005, and eventually became the West Coast Bureau Chief. She is also a mother of two teens who attend Notre Dame High School in Los Angeles. The Notre Dame spirit runs deep in her family. When Nancy Dillon talks about how Notre Dame prepared her for her career, she says that her English teachers were “incredible.”

“They assigned a ton of reading, which is essential for strong writing. NDB also provided a challenging but supportive space where I built the self-confidence and critical thinking skills needed for reporting. And NDB held us to high standards. I once received an automatic F for misspelling the title of a novel on the cover page of a term paper. I still have stress dreams over it, but it ingrained in me the importance of careful proofreading.”

She is grateful for the true college-prep environment that was nurturing at the same time that it was academically rigorous. She always felt comfortable asking questions and voicing her opinions. She read Shakespeare, Kate Chopin, Doris Lessing, Franz Kafka and Gabriel García Márquez — and she can still recite the Prologue of The Canterbury Tales.

“We made movies, wrote political satire, and traveled with a debate club. It was dreamy.”

She advises students to take advantage of every

leadership opportunity, whether it is student government, starting a club or something entirely new.

“I was fortunate to serve as co-editor of the school’s literary magazine, marking my first real exposure to publishing. Explore everything that sparks your interest and remember that it’s okay to fail. Those moments often teach us the most valuable lessons.”

Her favorite memories involve the lifelong friendships that she built at Notre Dame.

“The Dining Room was our social hub, where we shared everything, studied and planned our social lives without the help of social media. The campus was such a supportive space. My circle of friends from NDB remains incredibly tight. We have a group text chain where we’re still in almost daily communication.

It’s amazing.”

Opening Every Door MEG DAY ‘02 Professor of English and Creative Writing, North Carolina State University 2024 Poet-in-Residence, Guggenheim Museum Dr. Meg Day holds an M.F.A. from Mills College and a Ph.D. in Literature and Creative Writing with an emphasis on Disability Poetics from the University of Utah where Day was a Steffensen-Cannon Fellow, a United States Point Foundation Scholar and Poetry Editor for Quarterly West. The Guggenheim Museum named Day as its 2024 Poet-in-Residence. Day’s residency, All Ears, aims to highlight deaf poets, encourage engagement with American Sign Language and reorient understandings of language.

Dr. Meg Day just wrapped up a year as the poet-in-residence at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City and is embarking on a new partnership as a South Arts Fellow, representing literary excellence in the state of North Carolina, where she lives with her wife and toddler. Dr. Day was awarded tenure this spring as a professor at North Carolina State and is looking forward to welcoming the next cohort of graduate poets into the MFA program in Raleigh this fall.

Meg talks about how so many of the skills she’s honed over the last twenty years as an educator and author were cultivated early on at Notre Dame Belmont.

“Critical analysis, collaborative cross-pollination, quick and creative problem-solving, innovative pedagogy—these are things that were modeled for me in the classroom; yes, but they were also baked into things like Aquacades and Intersession trips. Doing it all alongside passionate, empowered Tigers on their own journeys was edifying. The culture and the community of inclusion set the bar high in ways I try to replicate in my own classroom and in front of audiences around the world. I’m really grateful.”

When asked how her classes and experiences at Notre Dame inspired her career path, she talks about her teachers. While Frank Ryerson taught the first creative writing class she’d ever taken, it was Annemarie Cota in AP English IV who asked the class to write their own cantos, after Dante’s Inferno.

“Loren Molnar had us write and perform the presidency of Andrew Jackson to the music of Disney’s The Lion King before Hamilton was a thing. World Religions with Ellen Six helped me understand intertextual allusion across global literatures.”

While she vividly recalls her influential teachers in the classroom, she also recalls the fun and challenging experiences outside of the classroom.

“I wrote and passed more notes in the hallways of Notre Dame than I wrote pages for term papers! And where there wasn’t creative output, there was creative problemsolving: the problem of my Honors Geometry grade, my date to the winter formal, the senior prank.”

Meg studied neuroscience and the creative center of the brain for three years in undergrad before she accidentally walked into the wrong lecture hall and met the professor of Introduction to Poetry; she shares that Notre Dame gave her the tools and the courage to pursue creativity in every arena.

“What I saw clearly in my teachers, though, was that they had rich, multifaceted lives; they weren’t ever just one thing. Notre Dame

impressed upon me the idea that there is likely an unexplored avenue waiting for you to live your way toward. Because of Notre Dame, I open every door.”

When she talks about why she is grateful for her Notre Dame education, it goes beyond the classroom. It’s the opportunities, the friendships, the formative life lessons.

“I encounter students every day who didn’t have an educational environment that supported their talents or needs, or even their personhood.

I never felt like a number at Notre Dame and, more than once, someone—a comrade or a teacher or a coach—reached out when I was struggling or falling behind. I wish my students would receive the support and attention and, quite frankly, the love that NDB extended to me.

Though I’m sure it didn’t feel like it at the time, I’m absolutely who I am because of it.”

What You Pour is What You Get ALAIYAH SAN JUAN ‘21 Professional Basketball Player, Clube Desportivo Jose Regio in Portugual Alaiyah San Juan graduated from Notre Dame in 2021. As a varsity basketball player, she was top 10 in NDB points and assists (and that is only 2.5 seasons due to covid and injury). As a scholarship player at Dominican University, she was third AllTime Leading Scorer, 1000-Point Club, Academic All-PacWest, Second Team All-PacWest and she was drafted to play in the WPBA (Women’s Premier Basketball Association) right after graduation.

“They challenged me, believed in me and pushed me to rise to a higher standard both on and off the court. Coming from a close-knit family, I found the same sense of encouragement and support within the sisterhood at Notre Dame. I didn’t just grow as a player, but also as a young woman prepared to take on a world that doesn’t always expect you to succeed in male-dominated spaces. And for that, I’m forever grateful.”

On her journey to becoming a professional athlete, she overcame setbacks and challenges along the way.

Sidelined with an ACL tear during a time crucial for college recruiting, she was just beginning to recover when COVID-19 shut everything down.

Alaiyah signed a contract to play professionally in Portugal for CDJR – Clube Desportivo Jose Regio, the first player since Chioma Igwe ‘04 who played professional soccer.

Alaiyah shares what it is like to be a professional athlete in women’s sports.

“It’s incredibly rewarding to finally say that I’m a professional women’s basketball player. I’ve always believed in my abilities and kept my faith in God, so this moment has never felt out of reach — but living it still feels surreal. Every day, I get to do what I love at the highest level, and that’s a privilege I never take for granted. Beyond the opportunity to continue to compete, it’s meaningful to be part of a movement that’s reshaping how the world sees females in a male-dominated industry.”

Alaiyah relies on the values that her parents instilled in her from a young age – leadership, discipline, and ambition — which she states are not “gendered.” She tells how fortunate she was to be in an environment with her fellow students, teachers/faculty and coaches who were strong, driven women who modeled these values every day. She credits her coaches, Sam Rossi and Kate Mahoney, along with Christina Okubo, who played a role in shaping the athlete and person that she is today.

With limited exposure and scholarships harder to come by, the future felt uncertain until Dominican University of California gave her the opportunity.

While it wasn’t the path she expected, she tells how it built her character, deepened her love for the game, and ultimately prepared her to succeed at the professional level.

While the current state of women’s sports is a concern, Alaiyah sees the investment, visibility and respect as a major step forward.

“Being able to witness the historic inaugural year of the Golden State Valkyries and the growth of the Women’s Premier Basketball Association both right here in the Bay Area is nothing short of inspiring. I’m incredibly grateful for the growth we’ve seen in recent years growth that has created opportunities I know many girls before me never had. As a strong foundation continues to be built, I hope this upward trend lasts and that young women and girls everywhere feel empowered to dream even bigger.”

Alaiyah gives advice to current students who aspire to pursue a career in athletics: “When you’re passionate about something, whether it’s sports, art, or any career path, one thing is always true — nothing great comes easy. That’s something I’ve embraced throughout my basketball journey. I’ve always approached the game with a ‘why not’ mindset.

If I truly love this sport, then why not put in the extra hours? Why not bring full effort and energy to every practice? Why not chase the highest version of myself? I’ve learned that what you pour into your passion is exactly what you’ll get back. That mindset has grounded me through the highs and lows, because I’ve always trusted that if I was doing the work, everything would fall into place the way it was meant to.”

Service is Central to Who We Are G IMAZUMI-HEGARTY ‘07 NDB Service-Learning Coordinator, Diversity, DEI Coordinator, Teacher and College Board Coordinator Gillian(G) Imazumi-Hegarty ’07 serves as Community Service-Learning Coordinator, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Coordinator, World Language Teacher, Becoming Notre Dame class teacher, and College Board Testing Coordinator. She works with student unions, clubs and The Coalition for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB), a student leadership board.

G says that her work is rooted in the same lessons she learned as a student here: that service, diversity, and justice are inseparable and that education should always prepare one to build a more inclusive and compassionate world.

G shares that she graduated from NDB deeply inspired by her religious studies courses—particularly World Religions and Social Justice—and by her language classes (having taken both French & Spanish), which opened doors to other cultures as well as her own experience volunteering. While classes started at first as just a requirement to tick off, they broadened her understanding of what community is and what it could be.

After graduating with degrees in Community Studies and Sociology, G worked as Director at a progressive political consulting firm across California for five years, and later as an educational consultant, teacher, trainer and administrator in Cambodia where she partnered with schools and nonprofits for another five years.

“Getting the invitation to bring my passion, skills and desire to keep learning back to my community at NDB was the chance of a lifetime, and I have worn many hats since returning in late 2018.”

When asked why it’s important for NDB students to be of service to others and to our community, G explains that,

“At NDB, service is not something extra—it is central to who we are.”

“To serve others is to recognize the dignity and sacredness of each person, one of our Hallmarks. Service allows students to step outside of themselves, connect with and learn from diverse communities and develop compassion and empathy. It reminds us that learning isn’t just about academics, but about building a just and caring world. While English does not have a word for ‘teaching while learning’ (or vice versa), in my experience — service is exactly that. Participating in service learning impacts who our students are and the careers that they pursue because service learning shapes identity and purpose.”

G volunteering with NDB students

“When students engage in meaningful projects — whether working with local communities, organizing drives or tutoring — they begin to see themselves as capable changemakers. Many alumnae carry this into their careers, pursuing education, healthcare, social justice and community-oriented fields. This commitment to lifelong learning and service isn't just St. Julie’s legacy, but is also core to anything we do in any field. At the end of the day, everything comes down to connection. Service learning teaches practical skills like communication, collaboration and leadership, but it also instills values: a commitment to equity, justice and advocacy.”

G explains that service is a bridge between diversity and inclusion because when students partner with communities that differ from their own, they practice humility and cultural awareness.

“They learn to listen deeply, honor lived experiences and recognize systemic inequities.

This practice directly supports our DEIB commitment by ensuring students don’t just talk about diversity and inclusion but live it through action and relationship.“ NDB offers multiple leadership pathways including

Student Unions (Asian Pacific Islander, Black, Latine) that provide affinity spaces and amplify student voices.

The Coalition for DEIB is a student leadership board that shapes campus culture, advocates for equity and collaborates across campus and beyond. Clubs like Rainbow Club, Middle Eastern Club, Global Connections, Service Club, Intersectional Feminism Club and Friends of the Coalition create inclusive spaces, support each other and educate peers. Events and gatherings like First Fridays, Heritage Months, the Culture Fair, and Honor Your Roots Celebrate Your Heritage celebrations invite the whole community to participate.

G explains that these opportunities matter because they give students agency, affirm identities, foster belonging and ensure that every student knows they are seen and valued.

“Diversity enhances the NDB community by bringing richness to classrooms and friendships. It broadens perspectives, challenges assumptions and prepares students for a global society. At NDB, diversity is not simply about representation — it is about transformation. When students learn alongside peers of different cultures, languages and identities, they grow in empathy, adaptability and creativity. This enhances our community and strengthens our mission.”

Prepared for Life JJ King (Jenny Lindeburg) ‘98 Youth Crisis Support Counselor JJ King (Jenny Lindeburg) ‘98 is a Crisis Support Counselor for The Trevor Project, the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention nonprofit organization for LGBTQ+ young people. The Trevor Project provides information and support for LGBTQ+ young people 24/7, all year round.

When asked about the role of a Crisis Support Counselor, JJ explained, “As a Crisis Support Counselor, my work begins with one of the most powerful human acts: listening. My job is not to fix someone's life in one phone call. Rather, it's to offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental presence in moments of fear, despair or isolation. I am there to help young people feel seen and heard, affirming their identity and reminding them that they are not alone.”

When asked what inspired JJ to become a Crisis Support Counselor, she explained, “I came out later in life, largely because I grew up in an environment where being myself didn’t feel safe.

In many ways, that’s the same reality faced by the young people I speak to — living in unsupportive homes, schools or communities where acceptance is uncertain. I understand their challenges not just in theory, but because I’ve lived them. I know what it feels like to sit in that darkness, wondering if life will ever get better.

But I also know the power of hearing just one person say, ‘You are ok just as you are.’ That simple affirmation changed my life. As a crisis support counselor, I want to be that person for someone else — the voice that holds hope, that reminds people of their worth, and that helps light the way out of despair. In many ways, I do this work for the youth who call — but also for the younger version of myself who needed to hear those same words.”

JJ explained that it is extremely important to offer services like crisis support counseling and suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ youth.

“It’s important to offer services like Crisis Support Counseling for LGBTQ+ youth because the challenges they face are often layered with stigma, rejection and isolation that can place them at higher risk for mental health struggles and suicide. Research shows that LGBTQ+ young people are more likely than their peers to experience depression, anxiety, homelessness and suicidal thoughts. This isn’t because of their identity itself, but because of the stress of rejection, discrimination, bullying or living in unsupportive environments. Crisis services help interrupt these cycles of despair at the very moment they are most dangerous. Every conversation reinforces the message: You matter. You are not alone. You are loved as you are. And for many LGBTQ+ youth, the crisis support counselor is the only person in their life reinforcing this message of acceptance and love.”

JJ explained that NDB prepared her for her career.

“NDB taught me to work hard. It taught me to not give up. It taught me to advocate for myself and for others. It taught me empathy. I didn't know I was learning these skills at the time.”

“Then, I thought I was simply learning to study and how to be a friend. But looking back? NDB wasn't just preparing me for my career working with at-risk LGBTQ+ youth, it was preparing me for life.”

JJ is incredibly grateful for having received a Notre Dame education.

“I am grateful to NDB for creating a safe and inclusive environment where teachers listened and friends supported and I felt safe to be myself. At NDB, I received an excellent education that not only laid the foundation for my career, but also for who I am today. I'm forever grateful!”

When asked about how she prioritizes self-care in the midst of such critical work, JJ shared her thoughts.

“Working as a crisis support counselor is deeply meaningful, but it can also be emotionally heavy.

I’ve learned that to show up fully for someone else, I need to tend to my own well-being with just as much care. For me, that means having grounding rituals — pausing to breathe before and after a shift, journaling or spending time in nature with my kids. These moments help me release what I’ve held for others so it doesn’t weigh me down.”

“Community is also part of my self-care. Just as the youth I speak to need connection, I do too.

Reaching out to trusted friends, my partner or colleagues reminds me that I don’t carry this work alone. And finally, I try to hold onto the hope I hear in young people’s voices — the courage it takes to reach out in the first place.

Remembering their strength fuels my own.

At the heart of it, self-care isn’t about stepping away from the work — it’s about sustaining myself so I can keep showing up, with presence and compassion. And coffee. None of this would be possible without coffee!”

Supporting LGBTQ+ youth doesn’t require special training — it starts with being present, affirming and being willing to listen. Here are some meaningful ways anyone can help:

1. Offer Acceptance and Affirmation: Small words carry enormous weight.

Saying “I believe you,” “I’m glad you’re you,” or “You’re safe with me” can make the difference between despair and hope. For many young people, even one accepting adult significantly lowers the risk of suicide.

2. Create Safe and Visible Spaces: Whether in classrooms, homes, workplaces, or faith communities, making it clear that LGBTQ+ youth are welcome matters. This might look like using inclusive language, displaying affirming symbols (like a pride flag or pronoun pin), or intervening when you see discrimination or bullying.

3. Educate Yourself: Learning about the unique challenges LGBTQ+ youth face — from family rejection to systemic inequities — allows allies to offer more thoughtful, informed support.

Reading, attending trainings, or listening to LGBTQ+ voices helps reduce the burden on youth to educate others while they’re still figuring things out themselves.

4. Advocate for Resources and Rights: Support organizations like The Trevor Project and local LGBTQ+ centers, but also use your voice to push for policies that protect and uplift LGBTQ+ youth — from inclusive school curricula to accessible mental health care.

5. Be Consistent: What youth need most is not a grand gesture, but steady, reliable presence. Checking in, remembering details they’ve shared, and showing up consistently communicates: You are not alone. You matter.

The Space to Be Myself Paola Estanislao Pretorius ‘00 Deputy District Attorney, Santa Clara County When asked to describe why NDB means so much to her, Paola described the power of a Notre Dame Belmont education in a simple, yet profound way.

“An Instagram meme I came across recently stuck with me. It said, ‘Everything you want is on the other side of cringe.’ It couldn’t feel more true in 2025. Growing up, I always felt different, and like many teenagers, I sometimes struggled to find where I fit in. But NDB gave me something really special: it gave me the space to be myself. It was a place I could try things, take risks, and figure out who I was becoming—all while knowing there were teachers, counselors, and classmates who had my back.”

When asked why she is grateful for an NDB education, Paola explained, “What I’m most grateful for is that NDB let me try hard. And I really did. I joined clubs, played sports, ran for office—you name it. I wasn’t always sure how things would turn out, but I showed up anyway. NDB gave me opportunities, but it was up to me to take advantage of them. It was sometimes scary to put myself out there, but the risk was worth it. And that’s what NDB has always been to me, and why I’m so grateful for it—a safe place to grow and learn, but also a trusted guide that gently pushes you forward and gives you a glimpse of the wider world in a way that feels just right for where you are."

With alumnae paving the way to leadership as doctors, politicians, teachers and more, it is clear that NDB students are prepared to take risks and excel in whichever field they choose. Paola shared how NDB prepared her for her path to Deputy District Attorney of Santa Clara County.

“When I think about how NDB prepared me for my career, what stands out most are the experiences that shaped how I approach challenges and opportunities. Running for office, joining teams, speaking up in class and working alongside people who thought differently than I did—all those moments ended up being far more important than I realized at the time. They taught me how to lead, how to listen, how to collaborate, and most importantly, how to keep going even when things didn’t go my way.”

Being the first in her family to graduate with a fouryear college degree in the U.S., NDB nurtured Paola to grow confidence.

My career has been nothing short of an incredible ride. I am genuinely grateful every single day I get to wake up and do this work. As a prosecutor, I fight for truth and justice—that’s literally my job. How amazing is that?”

Paola’s favorite memories at NDB include studying with her friend Mamie Higgins, screaming at the top of her lungs on the cheer team, listening to her friend Natalie Ford play guitar in between classes, singing in choir with Herlene DeOcampo and Melissa Alvarez and 6:30 a.m. basketball practices with coaches Maria, Steve, Mr. Lomeli.

“Coming from a Filipino-immigrant family, I was the first to finish a four-year college in the U.S., the first to go to law school, and the first lawyer in my family. There wasn’t really a roadmap for me to follow. But what NDB gave me was the confidence to create my own path. It taught me how to see positives in struggle, and how to turn uncertainty into motivation. That mindset inspired me to pursue law—a field where you have to keep pushing, keep learning, and keep standing up for what you believe in.”

When asked what her proudest moment has been as a professional, Paolo reflected on her career path and notable achievements along the way.

When I passed the Bar, I worked in several offices before finding my home as a Deputy District Attorney in Santa Clara County. I’ve now been a prosecutor for 18 years, having prosecuted a wide range of cases from DUIs, domestic violence, embezzlements involving millions of dollars in losses, and human trafficking. One of the assignments I am most proud of is when District Attorney Jeff Rosen designated me as the Human Trafficking Prosecutor during the years leading up to the 2016 Super Bowl at Levi Stadium. During that assignment, I worked with a team of dedicated detectives to root out human traffickers, support victims and educate communities about the plight of human trafficking—a crime often hidden in plain sight.

“Looking back, I can see how every single risk I took at NDB added up. NDB was a safe place to try, to fail, to succeed, and to try again. That’s what made it so special. NDB didn’t just prepare me for college or law school—it prepared me for a life of grit and perseverance.”

Called to the Stand NDB’s Award Winning Mock Trial Team When Mock Trial was first founded in the 2010-2011 school year, it was a small group of motivated students who wanted to explore their interest in the law. Today, there are 55-60 students each season, meaning they are the only Mock Trial program with enough students to have three separate competitive teams. Students take full advantage of the Mock Trial experience by exploring a wide range of interests. Those interested in debate can argue the pretrial motion, aspiring performers can be witnesses and courtroom journalists and courtroom artists can develop their creative passion. Mock Trial members have grown in scope and deepened their understanding of the law, making it possible for Rachel Cornwell '27 students with many different interests to explore and grow.

One of the original founding students, Molly Miram ’12, is now an Assistant District Attorney with San Mateo County and has come back to coach the NDB Mock Trial Team, alongside her husband, for the last four years.

Jonathan Tomczak, NDB Teacher and Mock Trial Moderator, says that he is proud of this team for so very many reasons: “Their aptitude for complex legal issues, their resilience and focus, and their abounding selfconfidence and humor.”

“One thing that especially stands out is the camaraderie that naturally occurs among team members.

They don’t isolate themselves by grade or personality. They come together to make their case. Every possible combination of students ends up working together naturally. NDB Mock Trial is such a microcosm of Notre Dame in that way—regardless of background or belief, they are united by a common goal and end up forming incredible friendships as they work through the season together,” shares Jonathan.

“The Mock Trial Team inspires me every day. They are excellent mentors and teammates to each other, and their creativity, in many different ways, never ceases to amaze me. I’d also say that their dedication is inspiring. Mock Trial requires as much effort as any sport or other extracurricular, and despite all their classwork and other interests, they make the time to practice and excel. It’s truly impressive and inspires me to give my all to everything that I do as well.”

Jonathan explained that it means a lot to him that he has the opportunity to work with so many wonderful students.

Mock Trial prepares NDB students for college and careers because everyone needs to be able to think critically and speak up for their perspective. Jonathan explains that even more than most extracurriculars, Mock Trial emphasizes the skills that will always be relevant: analysis, persuasion, poise, and articulation of one’s point of view.

Evelyn Fox ’26 reiterates that Mock Trial has enhanced her public speaking skills and confidence because it has provided her unique opportunities to experience presentations and mentorship and to receive feedback from volunteer attorney coaches and established attorneys who work as judges to score competitions.

“My section of Mock Trial, the Pretrial attorney, has the unique opportunity to speak directly to the judge, fielding questions, clarifications, and challenges, all while connecting the facts back to our precedent SCOTUS cases.”

Aleeya Baqai ‘26

“Our team is the largest organization at NDB, full of talented, creative, and humorous people, many of whom I wouldn’t have the chance to know nearly as well without Mock Trial.

Witnessing their growth and making those memories is probably what I cherish most when it comes to Mock Trial, and it’s why I keep coming back every year.”

“It’s so fun you don’t realize it’s happening, but I see it in students over the course of their Mock Trial careers: Mock Trial helps you find your voice. I can’t think of a better, more important skill for students—especially young women—to develop and strengthen before they head into the wider world,” Jonathan shared.

Three NDB Mock Trial Team members earned individual San Mateo County awards in 2025 — the most individual awards earned by any Mock Trial team in San Mateo County in 2025 — setting a new NDB record for most individual county awards in a single season. It is also NDB’s second consecutive year winning the county’s Courtroom Journalist competition.

Success is Uplifting Women BRANDI CHASTAIN Two-Time FIFA World Cup Champion, Three-Time Olympic Medalist, Co-Founder of Bay FC To celebrate leadership and community on Class Day at NDB on May 30, 2025, Notre Dame welcomed a surprise guest of honor, Brandi Chastain, Two-Time FIFA World Cup champion, three-time Olympic medalist and co-founder of Bay FC. Brandi is best known for scoring the game-winning penalty kick for the U.S. against China in the 1999 FIFA World Cup final. Her celebration where she removed her jersey to reveal a sports bra and dropped to her knees is one of the most memorable moments in women’s sport history.

Chastain now serves as a color commentator for NBC and ABC, a volunteer assistant coach at Santa Clara, and developer of ReachP1, a foundation formed to empower girls through sports and mentorship.

Hailey Degnan ‘25 and Kaylee Ellerhorst ‘24 interviewed Brandi who shared about her path to success with many valuable lessons. She emphasized that her path was full of unexpected ups and downs.

As a freshman at UC Berkeley, she played and scored 15 goals, but soon after, she underwent reconstructive anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgeries on both knees, which caused her to miss the 1987 and 1988 seasons.

Brandi with Hailey Degnan ‘25 and Kaylee Ellerhorst ‘24

Students appreciated how Brandi emphasized that success is not linear and that there will be challenges and obstacles along the way.

“I loved how she highlighted that life is not a linear path! It was so relevant for the seniors who are off to college and for me to realize life has highs and lows. The important thing is that you strive to be your best self,” Siena Heid ‘28 said.

Zaria Bedard ‘28 shared that “She viewed her obstacles as a positive rather than a negative thing as it motivated her to get back in the game and try her best.”

A powerful message students heard was that winning is not the end goal — using one’s success to empower others is the ultimate accomplishment.

“I liked how her interpretation of success focuses on each person finding their own path and direction. Winning is not the end goal, but rather to use our success to empower others,” Maddie Fowler ‘26 said.

Kira Tan ‘28 shared that she used to care only about winning, “it blinded me so much that I cared less about how others were doing. This reminded me to be supportive and help others. Brandi also reminded me about the importance of being myself and not turning into someone that only pleases others. I should be true to myself and the

person I want to become should be my own choice.”

Putting into practice her philosophy that while you celebrate your wins, it’s not just about winning: it’s about what else you can do to uplift other women, Brandi cofounded the Bay Area Women’s Sport Initiative (BAWSI) which provides opportunities for young girls.

When asked whether Brandi’s visit changed student’s ideas or gave them new ideas, many reflected that her message served to remind them what they already knew and how motivating it was to hear it from someone who is so successful.

Camilla Qaqundah ‘26 said, “She gave me ideas and thoughts that made me feel more inspired.

She motivated me to never give up and always stay committed to something that I love and want to pursue.”

For others, Brandi’s talk changed their views.

“Yes, for sure she changed my views on how to always show up and believe in myself. Also to always celebrate even the small things I can accomplish,” Charlotte Sewell ‘25 said.

Loki Ingalls ‘26 shared that Brandi inspired her “to take more risks! To jump for my goals without asking ‘what if I fail’ and letting that question ruin my chance.”

One message that students took away was that, yes, women can have a thriving career and a family and children.

Rayna Algama ‘26 agreed, “I really liked how she mentioned that women can have a career and be mothers; they can do both. I think more people need to hear that.”

After recognizing that it’s not just about winning, but it’s about using one’s success to empower others, one final thought comes from Alexandra Charnas ‘26, “It opened ideas of supporting yourself. A lot of people try to uplift others, but it’s important to remember that you should also celebrate yourself.”
