Being a student at Lebanon Valley College has helped me grow into the leader I am today! I am involved in a multitude of clubs and organizations on campus while staying on top of my classwork, being dedicated to my field of study, and being on the Dean's List since my freshman fall semester.I am most proud of Monster Mash, an event I founded and built in collaboration with Student Affairs at Lebanon Valley College (LVC) and the Annville-Cleona School District (ACSD). Monster Mash is an event for students with special needs and their siblings to come escape the overstimulation associated with Halloween. Clubs from LVC come set up in the Annville Elementary Gym and offer a number of activities: from simply picking up candy to playing mini tennis. I am honored to have built and continued an event, along with connections, to all the students and staff involved from both LVC and ACSD. Being an advocate for students of all kinds, especially special needs, has been my number one priority and I hope to bring more people to understand and develop their own ways to advocate.
