As someone who values advocacy, inclusivity, and social justice, I see this role as an opportunity to empower students, ensure they feel seen and supported, and provide resources that can help them thrive academically and personally. I want to make sure first-generation students have access to the same opportunities and feel confident in their journey, no matter their background.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><span>Gender Identity and Pronouns: she\/her<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Race, Ethnicity, and\/or Nationality: Black<\/li>\n<li><span>Hometown: Ohio<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Languages Spoken: American Sign Language &amp; English<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Business\/ Industry of Interest:\u00a0<\/span>Art and Humanities, Health, Sciences, Business, Engineering, Social Sciences<\/li>\n<li><span>Personal Facts\/ Hobbies\/ Interests: I\u2019m passionate about advocating for social justice, especially within the Deaf community, and supporting first-generation college students.
