Most Memorable Moment:

The most impactful moment of my college years was joining Alpha Kappa Psi. It showed me how to network with people and the importance of building connections. Learned more about myself and figured out what type of brand I want to present myself. Also serving on the Executive Board of the Esther Fund Foundation as treasurer. It allowed me to tap into my creative side to make fundraising events and to give back to the community at the same time. These experiences allowed me to become part of a community that supported my growth, leadership opportunities, and personal accountability. Working with other passionate college students, taking on tangible responsibilities, and influencing the organization's culture demonstrated the kind of leader I know I can be.
