1. How will you change the daily life of students in your college if elected?
The number of mass emails sent throughout the College of Ag is overwhelming. I want to work on a system for filtering these emails so students only receive emails pertaining to them. This will keep students from being bombarded with unnecessary emails and students will know that all of the information that they receive relates directly to them.


2. What is the most important issue facing students on campus?
I feel that more important than any specific issue, the main problem students face is not having a Student Government who is representative of the student body. The student body's opinions should be heard by representatives of Student Government getting involved with students in every area on campus and listening to their ideas and concerns and working to make the campus and community a better place for all LSU students.


3. Where do you see the University in five years?
Hopefully in five years LSU will continue to improve and excel as the flagship of Louisiana and a few more National Championships definitely wouldn't hurt.


4. What will you change from the past administration?
I will be more concerned with the needs of the students in the College of Agriculture. Getting involved and talking to students about what they think needs to be changed is the only way to accomplish this. I want to work for the students and make their experience in the College of Ag better. I want as much student input as possible so I can help allocate funds to the areas in need and help plan events that will benefit the college.

5. Why are you qualified for the position you're running for?
As both a past 4-H member and holding several different offices in multiple clubs and organizations I definitely know how to work with a leadership team to get goals accomplished. But as I said, it is impossible to represent the students without student input, so I am here to listen to you and what you want to see done! If you want the university to be about the students you have to put Students First!
