• French Club Treasurer - Handled most of the club's finances and planning to promote the French culture on campus. Assist in the expenditure of yearly budget.
• Tau Kappa Epsilon - Tau Kappa Epsilon (Pi Chi Chapter) social fraternity that is actively involved in volunteering in the community. For e.g., we raised money for the Saint Jude's and Autism Speaks Foundations. Being in a fraternity that had strong values such as leadership, community, service, and scholarship molded me into a better individual.
• Soccer - Competed in soccer at a high level for more than a decade now everywhere I've been. Enrolled in a professional soccer academy in Senegal where I was offered a chance to turn pro, which my parents and I declined to pursue higher education. Soccer experience lead to building and maintaining relationships, accumulated leadership experience and enriched my team management skills.
