Why did you want to become a CM? I had the most wonderful time being a first-year student in LSWA and a Student Assistant—even though my experience as a Student Assistant was virtual, it still made me so happy through the pandemic. I’m graduating this year and I just knew I couldn’t let a single year of my college experience go by without being a part of this wonderful community. 

What hopes do you have for the upcoming year? I’m super excited for in-person clubs, where we can really let our creativity chains free and collaborate. Even just passing conversations in the halls of Alice Lloyd are so unique. 

Is there anything you'd like to say to future LSWA students? Always find ways to be creative, no matter what you’re studying, even in the smallest of ways.
