As President, I oversee what the board and F's do and help them in anyway possible. I'm the main contact with other RSOs on this campus, which gives us the opportunity to meet and collaborate. This year, I want PSA to participate in some of the many programs and events the University has to offer. This will allow us to broaden our horizon and give our members a well balanced University experience...

I'm the external VP, I delegate and collaborate with other APA organizations as well as Filipino MAFA schools arranging trips to those schools and events. I would love for us to strengthen our ties with IU FSA (our ading school) and build a great relationship with Loyola Kapwa. I also want to maintain communication with UIC FIA and reach out to other schools we don't visit much such as OSU PSA. But my main goal is to get PSA members to have other friends outside PSA by attending other APA events as well as sponsoring our own to those non PSA folk.

As Vice President-Internal, I try to keep the PSA officer board working together like a well-oiled machine... and as a family, of course. I'm a liaison to the University YMCA and the C-U community. Also, I try to create bonding moments between the classes, organize the Ate/Kuya/Ading mentorship program, and hopefully make YOU feel welcome. So kick back, take your shoes off, get some food, and get ready for a great year! :)

As Secretary I perform several tasks throughout the year such as taking minutes at each officer meeting, keeping track of attendance, maintaining Cube/AACC hours, and cleaning the Cube. My greatest task is shaping the future leaders of PSA in the internship program through leadership workshops and bonding events. I plan to refine several of the standard tasks as well as incorporate innovations such as an "anonymous" box and Cube/AACC journal.
