 2.    What is the one trait you want people to know you for?

A trait I want people to know me for is being reliable and being approachable to discuss anything without judgment.

 

 3.    What is your favorite quote/saying?

 

One of my favorite quotes are “There’s nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.” Banksy

 

 4.    What do you think can be improved at Kettering and what steps will you take to accomplish this improvement?

 

Kettering can improve student life. Since President McMahan has been in office he has improved student life tremendously but I still feel that there is more we can do. Such as hold more events on campus that will reach out to all students so all become involved. We could obtain this by adding in the bowling alley, and more events like KSG movie night that usually have an attendance of 60+ students. We can start by have a survey for common interest and what they would like to see Kettering do for them. Following so, we can discuss the best way to implement a system or event to attract students.

 

 5.    What has been your biggest success and failure? What have you learned from them?

My biggest success has been graduating from high school with honors of diction. On the other hand, my biggest failure has been keeping my goal of not dropping a class. I have learned that things do not always go as planned and to still look on the bright side of things because there is always one.

 

6.    What is your motivation for wanting to represent the student body via Student Senate?

 

My motivation for running is to do something new that can help others. I want really become part of the school and enjoy my time at Kettering and get the most out of my college years. I feel that this is a great way to do both.
