What qualities and experiences make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I’ve led a 160-person organization with significant budget oversight, coordinating large-scale philanthropic efforts that made a real impact. I’ve also founded a student club from the ground up, and served as a liaison connecting students and housing leadership to create solutions. From high school onward, where I was the President of my class council,  I’ve been actively involved in leadership roles that demanded both initiative and collaboration. I’m ready to bring that experience to serve the whole student body.

If elected, what are your plans for the Senior Class Office?

If elected, I plan to ensure our senior year is both meaningful and fun. I’ll use my experience managing large groups and budgets to create well-organized, inclusive events that bring us all together. I’ll advocate for the class, ensure a meaningful class gift, and plan memorable traditions. And to keep things fun, I’ll bring creative senior week ideas, unique class merch, and surprise events, so we finish strong and leave with amazing shared memories.

Is there anything else you would like to share about yourself?

This school has done more for me than anywhere else could have on the planet and it is great to know that I share the space with such amazing individuals of all different backgrounds and will have this Badger network forever.
