Why do you volunteer for Rice?
My 4 years at Rice were so impactful to my life, and volunteering is my way of paying it forward. I had been involved in student government and other initiatives while I was an undergrad, so transitioning into an alumni volunteer was a no-brainer! It is one of the most fulfilling activities that I am a part of as an adult!
What do you enjoy most about volunteering at Rice?
I love connecting with prospective and new students and reconnecting with alumni I knew as a student. Each student or alumni has such a unique pride and bond to Rice that is equally apparent and palpable no matter when you graduate/d! Volunteering allows me to relive those memories and swap stories that only Rice alumni would truly understand.
What's a fun Rice fact about you?
My parents were married in the Rice Chapel 20 years before I matriculated as a Rice undergraduate student.
