What is your favorite part of working with Fall Fest? I absolutely loved everything about my role as a Fall Fest coordinator: working with seven other great coordinators, picking the Fall Fest theme, meeting really inspirational faculty and staff from various departments of Brandeis, and most of all, watching all the parents carrying the beautiful Survival Guide I had spent nights creating and editing.

How has this involvement impacted your time at Brandeis? Fall Fest was my first leadership role at Brandeis and so learning from the roles I had to take on as a coordinator really gave me the opportunity to full immerse myself as a leader and get more involved in school activities. I was able to really establish myself as the middleman between the students and the Department of Student Activities. My involvement in Fall Fest allowed me once again to realize how much I love taking on leadership roles. Hence, I have taken on several other leadership roles at Brandeis thereafter.

Do you have a favorite memory of your time with Student Activities or at Brandeis? My favorite memory with Student Activities is when the Fall Fest Core Committee made a Fall Fest promotional video wearing our princess tiaras on the Great Lawn when it was freezing cold! Also, attending the events we planned with our friends and families was one of the most memorable.
