Why do
you participate in Go New Ro?
This
will be my fourth Iona in Mission: Go New Ro! I have participated each
year because my office is focused on helping students transition successfully
as citizens into the greater New Rochelle community. Go New Ro helps
nurture young student leaders who understand their rights as members of a
community and their responsibility to give back! I also love showing
incoming students all that makes New Rochelle so special!
Favorite
Thing about Iona?
My
favorite thing about Iona is all of the amazing professionals that I work with
who love to help students succeed at Iona and in life! It’s a wonderful,
collaborative environment.
Favorite
Iona Tradition?
Aside
from Go New Ro....I love Make a Difference Week…an annual week of service early
in the fall semester!
Favorite
Thing to do in New Rochelle?
I love
going for walks by Glen Island, a beautiful Westchester County park that is
right on the Long Island Sound. As a matter of fact, I love all of our
parks along the water including Hudson Park and Five Islands Park!
