Black Student Union

“As VP of Social, I was responsible for planning, organizing, and implementing events. I was extremely fortunate and thrilled to work with other black students on campus to boost awareness, interest, and knowledge about black history, rights, and progress.”

Being on Stage

“I attended a performing arts high school in Dallas, so I knew I needed to be involved in theater at Babson. I’ve been involved in at least a half-dozen shows while here. It’s been a great balance to the academic side of my life.”

On Study Abroad

“I studied abroad at the University of Sorbonne in Paris. It was a great experience to learn about another culture, build my global knowledge and become fluent in another language. The other countries, sites, and yummy food I was able to partake in were great!”

On Future Plans

“I remember the first time I realized that cardboard boxes under bridges were home for some people. That’s when I knew I wanted to create a center that is more than a temporary shelter. So that’s my vision—a place where people cannot just sleep, but in fact change their lives. My Babson experience has equipped me to help others.”
