Sister to Sister: Leadership Advice from Sara Brigagliano

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wake Forest chapter.

You may know her as Sara Brigagliano, ’16. You may know her as “Brigs.” Or you may even refer to her by her super-clever Facebook name, “Briggy Smalls.” Either way, this Politics and International Affairs major is known around campus — specifically for her leadership roles in Delta Zeta sorority.

When Sara joined her sorority she was looking for sisterhood, but also for a way to get more involved on campus. She applied and was accepted into her first Delta Zeta leadership position — “Secretary” –in 2013, and has worked her way up steadily since then. These various positions have helped sharpen her communication and organization skills.

“I haven’t had an interview yet where I don’t talk about these roles. They are so valuable to me, and to future employers,” Sara shares with us.

If you’re a collegiette who is looking to take on a new leadeship role on your sorority or in a club you may be active in on campus, Sara suggests that you take the leap ASAP. Her advice: “If you want to get involved but are hesitating because you are younger, don’t let that stop you. Growth and dedication go a long way, and older girls love enthusiasm!”
