As Hxstorian I plan on recording events, not only by pictures but through vlogs for our YouTube channel. I also want to build a relationship between alumni and current students.

I went to the PASA table during my freshman orientation and signed up but had no intention of going to all the events they offered and I just wanted to meet new people. Because I moved to the bay, the only people I knew were my roomates at the dorms. So one day I got a text from a core member inviting me to a friendship games practice. When I came to the practice everyone was so welcoming and I kept coming back to the practices. Also, I became more involved after becoming an intern and from there I went with the flow.

Hey what’s good! It was a pleasure to serve as PASA’s Hxstorian the 2017-2018 school year. Coming in to college I didn’t think I would take on a role like this. My freshmen year I decided to go to a friendship games practice and didn’t expect much from it. But everyone was so welcoming and I kept coming back. I want to share this experience with everyone because PASA is truly a family to me. I also want to thank Core and interns, this year and last year. You guys taught me to give myself more credit and to appreciate myself a lot more. You guys have pushed me even further and made me a better me. Signing off as Hxstorian. Hi welcome to chili’s I’ll be your VP this evening! On to bigger and better bags!
