4. Why did you chose Delta Zeta?
I chose Delta Zeta because I really admired the women in the chapter.  I was really young when I went through recruitment and I wanted to be just as confident and comfortable as the women from DZ.  I knew that DZ would help me grow.

5. Favorite Delta Zeta memory:
Watching my DZ family grow.  Seeing my little sisters become big sisters has been SO wonderful!

6. Favorite memory at San Jose State University:
Being on the Homecoming Court!  It was such an honor and was truly special.  Having all of my sisters there supporting me was amazing.

7. Best lesson Delta Zeta has taught me:
Be proactive, communicate honestly and hold myself accountable.

8. Advice you wish you knew before starting college/sorority membership:
Have fun!  Learn a lot, be patient and own your choices.

9. What are your future plans?
I am going to graduate school to study Student Affairs and Higher Education.  I plan to be an advisor on a college campus working with students in athletics, fraternity and sorority life, student leadership or student conduct.

10. What role has Delta Zeta played in your future? What skills have you gained? How will you be involved as an alumna?
Delta Zeta has set me up with SO many skills and experiences that will help me to be successful in my personal and professional life.  I have learned to love, communicate, problem solve and manage time and stress.  As an alumna, I hope to serve as a chapter advisor.  I also hope to become a Release Figures Method specialist for the National Panhellenic Conference.
