I am truly excited to work alongside some of the nation’s brightest individuals in the multicultural Greek community. I hope to successfully teach our surrounding communities about what multiculturalism means through the NMGC, and how we as individuals can embody the values of open mindedness, respect, humility, and genuine care for others no matter color, creed, income, ability, or residence. Along with all of the talented and diverse organizations who make up the NMGC, I am excited to lead us towards these goals.”
