My favorite things to do include thrift shopping, working 12 hour shifts at the animal hospital back at home, and eating at unlimited sushi restaurants. I am thrilled to be secretary for paws with a cause because I’ve been in the club since my first semester on campus and it has given me so many opportunities to meet new friends and get involved with some incredible organizations!
