Why did you choose to become involved with the Panhellenic Council?
I chose to become involved with Panhel because I enjoyed being the recruitment chair of my sorority and there were a lot of things I wanted to see changed within the system.
What was your favorite part about your experience abroad?
I was with a really good group of people so it made it fun to be there.
Do you find it difficult to balance cheering, Panhellenic duties, and schoolwork?
It gets hard sometimes, but I find that I have more Panhel things than schoolwork (today she had over 100 text messages before 11 am about Panhel things)
What is your best memory from Lehigh?
Cheering at football games and Lehigh-Laf.
What is one word your friends would use to describe you? Sparkly
What are you looking forward to most about senior year?
Just to hang out with everyone, spring break, and senior week, but definitely not graduation.
