Plans after College:
After graduation, I plan to attend graduate school at Clark Atlanta University. Afterwards, I plan to attend law school at either Emory or Mercer University

Extracurricular Activities:
I am involved in; Firebrand Youth Choir, Genesis Gospel Choir, Zion Youth Ministry, Camp Williamson, tutoring a student at Blackmon Road Middle School, and a plethora of community service that is directed towards helping children achieve scholastic as well as rebuilding self-esteem within teens. I love shopping, hanging with my friends, and becoming closer with God.

Future Plans for CSU:
My future plans at CSU are to help increase student participation through activities, as well as to allow student needs to be met within an institution where they feel their feelings and opinions matter. I feel it is necessary to incorporate the student body as a whole, which will one day lead to outstanding connection among students and faculty.

Future Plans for Student Government at CSU:
My initial plan is to expand Student Government across the campus. I also plan to include ideas and opinions of the most important factor at CSU; the student body. There should be an increase in working with other organizations as well as including ALL ethnicities in forum and activities. Everyone’s voice shall be heard, and I plan to be that bridge that allows students to cross over and definitely make a difference.

My Inspiration:

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in the moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
