Why are you running for this position in the Student Government Association?

  • I feel as though I would be a perfect candidate for this specific position because I have an in depth understanding of economic systems. In general, I would make a great candidate for a student government position due to my communication skills that I have developed over the years working with the Colorado Springs Teen Court, working as a full time employee in leadership positions for various corporations, and by being a captain on my high school wrestling team.

  • Some of my hobbies include studying law, reviewing investments, keeping track of politics, playing sports, watching football and spending time with friends and family. This is my first year at UCCS so I haven't had many opportunities yet, however I am a full-time student and I am waiting to apply for the UCCS Law Society when they get things going again.
