“I’ve become a better person, stronger, a better leader,” she said. “My freshman year I struggled to use my voice a little bit. I kind of hid in the shadows.

"But I think I’ve trusted my own voice, just been a better leader because these people around me have pushed me, especially Kate. She’s one of the best leaders I’ve ever been around. These people are amazing, and they’ve helped me grow.”
