During the spring semester of my sophomore year at Ithaca College, I got a job in the instrument repair window in Whalen! In this position, I help inventory and maintain the Center for Music’s instrument collection and aid students in acquiring instruments. A lot of this job so far has been cleaning the shop and helping to transition from the previous repair technician to this one.

Before the beginning of my sophomore year at Ithaca College, I got a job as an Orientation Leader to help incoming students adjust to the large transition to college! I attended a week of training so that I could be properly equipped for many situations, and I led multiple small group meetings during the actual week of Orientation to give new students an outlet to ask questions. Additionally, I helped at many fun events for new students to attend, such as Club Glow and #ICarnival! I will be returning as an Orientation Leader in the Fall of 2026!

Before the beginning of my sophomore year at Ithaca College, I helped out as a Jumpstart Leader to help incoming students adjust to the large transition to college!

I helped to run challenge activities, facilitating leadership development and communication skills. We attended the Hoffman Challenge Course by Cornell to explore these skills in a fun, outdoor environment!
