What are your plans for after graduation? 

I will be returning home to Oahu after graduation and starting my career there. I don’t currently have a job lined up, but I have been talking with professionals at home that are peers with some of my OSU professors.

What is the most valuable thing you learned, regarding your academic studies?

The most valuable thing that I learned is “how to think.” Learning how to be creative and think outside of what I’ve been learning in my classes is something extremely valuable that I will be taking with me. 

 What are you most proud of regarding your student experience?

I am a proud Tour Ambassador in the OSU Welcome Office. I am part of a team that welcomes over 30,000 individuals every year. I am also a proud member of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority, where I held multiple leadership roles. I helped to increase our campus and community involvement by 70% while I was in office. 

What was the biggest challenge you faced?

The biggest challenge was learning how to implement change, but I was successfully able to help girls understand the importance of relationships within their community.

What is your final message to the College of Business? 

I have truly enjoyed my four years at Oregon State University and have found a home within Corvallis and with the people I have met.
