Hello Macaulay Students!
My name is Christina Prekash, and I’m a freshman Economics major at Queens College. I know what it means to start over — I’ve attended schools in three different countries, and each time, I’ve had to find my people. That experience taught me how hard it can be to build a community — and how powerful it is when you do.
I’m ready to help create the kind of environment that’s inclusive, curious, and deeply connected. I may not come with a long list of leadership titles, but I come with belief in myself, a strong work ethic, and a commitment to grow into this role. I’m ready to build the skills I haven’t yet had the chance to develop and make our college experience truly memorable.
Like any good representative should, I listen — keenly and with care. One idea I hope to explore through Scholar’s Council is a skill-share Exchange: through this, students across eight campuses can host hands-on workshops in topics like Finance, design, coding or public speaking, depending on the popular majors of each college.
While I haven’t held official leadership roles yet, I have always stepped up when it mattered. At eleven, I helped raise money with a friend to organize a Christmas celebration with our flatmates — complete with cakes and snacks. That experience showed me the joy of bringing people together.
I’m stepping out of my comfort zone to run for Student Council, and I’m doing it with honesty, energy, a genuine desire to serve.
If you are looking for someone who listens deeply, learns quickly, and leads with heart — I’d be honored to earn your vote.
