As Vice President of the Student Executive Council, I see my role as supporting the President, leading initiatives and committees and ensuring student engagement, along with council effectiveness. Guided by our slogan, “your voice, our mission,” I want to take student ideas/feedback and turn them into meaningful action while helping create an engaging and inclusive MBA experience.

I decided to apply for a leadership role because I enjoy bringing people together and building community. The MBA journey is transformative, and I wanted to contribute beyond the classroom by creating opportunities for students to connect, grow and thrive. Being part of the SEC allows me to combine my passion for collaboration with the chance to make a real difference for our cohort.

I bring strong communication, organization and teamwork skills to this role. I enjoy coordinating projects, connecting with people from different backgrounds and turning ideas into action. Whether it is planning events, supporting clubs or keeping students informed, I am committed to making the SEC approachable and effective.

This year, our vision focuses on the three Cs: Community, Clubs, and Communication. I hope to strengthen our sense of community, expand opportunities for involvement through clubs and maintain open and transparent communication with our cohort. I want students to feel empowered to share their ideas and participate fully.

Ultimately, I hope to help create an MBA experience that is not only academically excellent but also engaging, supportive and memorable. I want every student to feel that their voice truly matters and that the SEC is there to support them throughout the year.
