I am a Resident Assistant in Valley 1 Britton/Hadley Hall and this will be my first school year in this position on campus. It is such an exciting job and I love it! I am also a member of the Voices of Western Michigan University Gospel Choir, and being apart of that RSO has helped me grow and become better everyday. I hold my faith dear to my heart, so finding an RSO that builds me in that way is so great! Plus I genuinely love to sing and what better way to do what I love than by joining a choir.
