Favorite thing(s) about Tulane: “I’m extremely grateful for the opportunities Tulane has provided. I’ve been able to follow my passion in the sciences by conducting research while also building my knowledge in the liberal arts! The campus itself fosters a sense of community and belonging.” 

My undergraduate journey has been one of continuous academic and social growth. The Dean’s Ambassador program resonates with me because of its commitment to academic excellence and promotion of Tulane’s core values. Serving as a Dean’s Ambassador provides an opportunity to represent the university and advocate for inclusive opportunities for all students. I hope to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my peers and contribute to the Tulane community. I am committed to ensuring that every student at Tulane has access to resources, support, and opportunities to thrive. Through this role, I hope to amplify diverse voices and perspectives while promoting collaboration and understanding. I believe that leadership is more than a title or position. Rather, it is a method of embodying integrity and empathy while striving for excellence in every interaction and endeavor. My hope, as a Dean’s Ambassador, is to serve as a passionate advocate for the Tulane community and inspire a sense of empowerment and unity by ensuring every voice is heard and valued in the pursuit of knowledge and growth.
