What experience and qualifications do you have?

President UMBC Sailing Club and Team President UMBC Skate Club Marketing Chair Entrepreneurial Society Active Member of the Rock Climbing Club I have had a great deal of leadership experience outside of UMBC as well Senior Patrol Leader Troop 1444 Junior Assistant Scoutmaster Troop 1444 Cook Crew Chief Order of the Arrow Lodge Amangamak Wipit All of my diverse interests allow me to lead functionally and effectively.

What is your platform? What do you hope to accomplish if you win?

My goal is to expose the population of UMBC Students to the diverse offerings at our school. Not only to pursue the things we know we are good at but to take it a step further and try something new, maybe something outside of our comfort zone. This will bring UMBC a greater sense of community, much more tightly knit then it is today.

What I really want students to know about me is….

I will try any activity offered on campus. I love to try new things and I always strive to push myself one step further. I wish to share all the knowledge and experience I've gained in my attempts at becoming a better person with the greater UMBC community.

Platform Summary:
  • Create a more unified and community centered campus where everyone can be involved, and every voice is important.
  • Encourage the involvement and growth of every organization on campus to improve and better the reputation of UMBC.
  • Organize joint efforts between organizations to promote events of a high caliber and magnitude.
