  • Developed promotional materials for events, enhancing student engagement.

In my campaign to grade representative i expressed how collaboration is a skill that must be mastered, so when we attend college hard conversations are not something we avoid but we chase. I started targeting the people that felt "dumb" because not all of us are meant to succeed at this school system imposed across the world we shine else where and i started the idea were clubs should be made and we are in the process of making clubs.
