Student Government Leadership

When I first got to college, I knew I didn’t want to just go to class and go home — I wanted to be part of something that mattered. Something that could actually change lives and improve the student experience. That’s when I learned about ASWSU, the Associated Students of Washington State University.

So in September 2024, I ran for office and was elected as the Freshman Delegate. I didn’t take that lightly — I wanted to make my time count.

During my term, I created something I wish had existed when I first arrived — the First Year Coug of the Month program. It was my way of recognizing new students who were already stepping up, contributing, and making an impact, even if they hadn’t been seen yet. I also spent time writing legislation that could help others feel more supported and connected. In total, I authored and passed four pieces of legislation—each focused on one of three things I care deeply about: student support, equity, and visibility. From improving how we share crisis resources... to launching a program that supports early pre-health students... to making sure ASWSU resolutions actually reach the students we serve—I made sure every resolution I passed had purpose behind it.

By the end of the year, my peers named me “Most Likely to Pass a Resolution”—a superlative that made me smile, because it reminded me that I had followed through on what I set out to do.

But I wasn’t done.

I ran for All-Campus Senator, and I was elected again — this time to serve all students, not just freshmen. This next chapter is about building on the foundation I’ve already laid, finishing the work I started, and bringing even more voices into the room.

This page is here to walk you through that journey — the legislation, the programs, the values — and everything I’m continuing to fight for as a student leader.

ASWSU

ASWSU stands for the Associated Students of Washington State University — the official student government that represents the voices, needs, and interests of over 20,000 students across the Pullman campus. Through legislation, advocacy, and student-run initiatives, ASWSU shapes campus policy, supports equity-focused programs, and builds stronger connections between students and administration.

Increasing Visibility of Student Support Services

I authored this resolution to confront the reality that many students, especially in times of crisis, don’t know where to turn. By requiring the university to distribute support resource flyers throughout every residence hall and major campus building, we made sure students have life-saving information within reach—when they need it most.

Founding the First Year Coug of the Month Program

Recognizing first-year students isn’t just about celebration — it’s about creating belonging. I created this program to highlight outstanding new students and give them a platform to feel valued. This resolution made the initiative official and helped embed it into the fabric of campus culture.

Expanding Support for 1st & 2nd Year Pre-Health Students

Many early pre-health students feel lost navigating the path to medical school—especially first-generation students. I wrote this resolution to create more tailored support during those critical first years. It formally recognized the Premed Advisory Program (PAP), a mentorship-based initiative I founded, and called for a week-long outreach event in partnership with the Health Professions Student Center. The goal: connect students early with clubs, resources, and guidance that could shape their future in healthcare.

Promoting Transparency Through Social Media

Students deserve to know what their government is doing. I wrote this resolution to make ASWSU more visible and accountable by requiring all passed legislation to be shared on official social media platforms like Instagram. It was a step toward closing the gap between student leaders and the student body—making sure every student has access to the decisions being made on their behalf.

At Coug Day, I represented WSU in Olympia, advocating directly with lawmakers on behalf of students across Washington. I spoke with legislators, testified, and joined efforts to support key bills that could impact access, safety, and opportunity for thousands.

I focused on critical issues like expanding the Washington College Grant (HB 1586 & SB 5204), advancing sexual assault prevention (SB 5355), protecting student free speech (HB 1343), and ensuring continued support for Native student scholarships and students experiencing homelessness.
