Hey fellow Macaulay scholars! My name is Olivia and I’m a first year student studying Environmental Engineering at City College!
MY REPRESENTATIVE BACKGROUND:
In high school, I was the chair of the Diversity Accountability Board, a student advisory board that worked with students, faculty, board, and administration on equity. There I organized events, panels, and activities for community-building while sharpening skills in adaptive leadership and having difficult conversations. As the chair of a board, I also represented my organization at my school’s Finance Committee where I advocated for the allocation of funds across different student organizations.
ME AS A STUDENT:
But my background spans beyond just student representation. I sprawl across different hobbies and passions. Along with being an elected student representative, I also have experience as a student athlete as a volleyball player, musician as a saxophone player (in the wind ensemble and a jazz band), artist as the president of the Knitting and Crocheting with Love Club, journalist as a writer for the daily and quarterly student publications, and diversity representative as a facilitator for the Black affinity group.
In these roles I organized fundraisers, hosted events, and conducted outreach across the whole student and faculty body. I subsequently received awards in all my work therein and was elected as Class Speaker for my year’s graduation ceremony.
WHY VOTE OLIVIA?:
I want your vote so that I can use my skills as a student leader to make Macaulay the best place for this unique student body.
For example, I’m a cyclist, and want to improve the conditions to encourage other people who can to cycle to campus. I want to promote biking infrastructure at Macaulay’s campus so people like me don’t have to walk long distances at a time to ensure our bikes and scooters stay safe!
I look forward to hearing every concern and implementing tangible change!
VOTE for OLIVIA!
