What is your biggest goal for USG in the 2014-2015 Academic Year?
If elected, I hope to continue working with them on our ongoing initiatives like creating a peer mentorship program for students according to major and/or similar career goals, increasing lab funding, and creating more events with alumni networking opportunities.

Prior USG experience / initiatives undertaken
Speaker for the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences Representative.
Initiatives worked on include creating a peer mentorship program for students according to major and/or similar career goals, increasing lab funding, creating more events with alumni networking opportunities and working with the Teaching and Learning Task Force for College of Arts and Sciences.

What is the biggest issue you see your position having to face? How do you specifically plan on tackling it?
Accomplishing initiatives as a caucus is a big issue I see for next year. I plan on creating more clear subcommittees within the caucus and making sure there are timelines created for these initiatives to be accomplished.
