Mary Maidment: Service

Hi! My name is Mary Maidment and I am from Portland, Oregon. I am studying neuroscience with a minor in psychology on the pre-med track. On campus, I work as an events assistant and as an Ambassador, frequently giving tours. When I have free time, I love to be outside hiking, shopping, intramural sports, workout classes, and spending time with friends. This year, my team won our softball and volleyball intramural championships!! I have been busy watching the new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season and just finished Scandal. What drew me to Setons was the Service pillar. Since I was young, my family has made an effort to be actively involved in different forms of service in our community. We spent time at our church, local food bank, community garden, and my favorite was making clothing bags for children in need. I loved picking outfits and giving toys, games, and other activities.

Sarah Avila - Service



    Hi! My name is Sarah Avila, I am the apparel chair for this year! I am from Sacramento, California and a double major in political science and environmental studies. I have two dogs, Jack and Chanel, and they are arguably the cutest dogs ever.
    Each of the pillars is extremely significant to me. Sisterhood is something I have always valued and one of the biggest aspects I missed of being an athlete on a team. Setons has given me that and more. I have made so many connections with the girls and I genuinely enjoy every event with my sisters. Service has impacted my life greatly and a task I have been regularly involved in since 7th grade. Leadership is an aspect of my everyday life and a characteristic of who I am. I have taken on leadership roles my entire life, including in setons. However, the pillar that is most significant to me is service. Even though we have not yet been able to do our service due to the pandemic, it is what I was most excited for when joining setons. I have always been involved in community service programs and at home, I did multiple service programs that involved working with special needs children. I enjoy doing regular service because it allows me to make connections with those I serve and serve with. I cannot wait to see what this pillar will bring when we start our service! Especially since both pillars of sisterhood and leadership have been amazing so far!
