• On the First Year Council, I work with a small group of peers selected from Oxford College of Emory University to advocate for student concerns, critique resource allocation, and problem solve to improve overall community wellbeing.
• I'm ecstatic to be a new addition to Oxford College's student health peer educator group: OxSAPA. On the executive board, it is my pleasure to educate others and support survivors by amplifying the messaging, resources, and empathy embedded within and surrounding the OxSAPA organization.

As a part of the Student Admissions Association, I'm responsible for making prospective students feel safe, validated, and welcome at Oxford College of Emory University. Although working for Emory Admissions is technically a 'job,' I am nonetheless grateful. I feel a great sense of internal fulfillment when I have the opportunity to connect with new students during an in-person information session, a virtual Q&A panel, over the Welcome to College database, and—my favorite—giving walk-though tours of Oxford to families.
