1.    What brought you to the Women's Center?

I was drawn to the Women's Center because this is a space that prioritizes inclusion, compassion, and kindness, and those kind of spaces at UVA are so important for students that want to take a break from competitive or stressful spaces.

 

2.    What other organizations are you involved with at UVA?

I teach debate with the Charlottesville Debate League in a local middle school, travel with the Model United Nations team and host conferences here at UVA, am involved in the Take Back the Night Vigil, serve as an editor for the Virginia Review of Politics, and intern with the UVA program on Religion, Violence and Strategy on VPA.

 

3.    If you could describe your intern team in 3 words, what would they be?

Some rockin' ladies!!

 

4.    What is your favorite memory of UVA thus far?

I don't know if I have just one favorite memory, but my most cherished memories at UVA have been just sitting together with good friends laughing and being ourselves together.

 

5.    What does leadership mean to you?

Leadership means kindness, meekness, and understanding.

 

6.    What is your guilty pleasure?
