ELLA MOORE: LEADERSHIP

 Hi! My name is Ella Moore and I'm a nursing major from Kenmore, Washington. I love spending time outdoors (whether it's hiking, skiing, or running), as well as reading, journaling, playing volleyball and trying new coffee shops. As many of my friends and sisters can confirm, my relationship with coffee and caffeine is less of a habit and more of a lifestyle. Another fun fact is that my mom, Kari Moore, was also a Seton in 1996–1997, making it so special to share this part of our Gonzaga experiences together. It's been a privilege to be part of the Seton community so far and I'm so excited to keep serving the Spokane community and cultivating even closer relationships with my sisters! For my pillar, I will be sharing my perspective on leadership! The pillar of leadership holds a special place in my heart because I believe that being a leader is about so much more than simply holding a title or position.

Katrina Wagner - Sisterhood


        Hello! My name is Katrina Wagner, and I am from Enumclaw, WA, a small farming community outside of Seattle. Yet my parents moved to Coeur d’Alene, ID my freshman year of college and I am grateful to be close to home and family. I am an Accounting major with two minors in Spanish and Entrepreneurial Leadership. I am also the Setons Treasurer this year which has been rewarding in that I have opportunities to work with all executive positions as well as various university offices.
        The pillar that I want to expand upon is sisterhood. I have experienced sisterhood in numerous ways through this community of inspiring women, whether that be through a simple smile and wave in Hemmingson, homework help in Philosophy, or Snapchat spams. Furthermore, I have a physical disability and this causes limitations in terms of participation in service or our other activities. But, my Seton sisters have accepted me and found ways for me to be involved comfortably. They, without hesitation, accommodate my needs by lifting my walker in and out of the vehicles while refusing to accept my apologies for any inconvenience I might cause. Since my service is with kids, (who are pretty cute if you ask me), sometimes I get questions and my sisters are quick to stand up for me and demonstrate the normality of someone who may look or walk differently. At the same time, they understand that my disability is not my whole identity by embracing, appreciating, and treating me as any other sister. I witness unconditional selflessness and friendship toward one another firsthand which is a blessing to say the least. My sisters on the executive board respect what I have to offer and my input, creating an environment of true sisterhood. I could write a whole essay about the teamwork and acceptance that I experience, but, to summarize, everytime I leave a meeting, service hours, or sister date, my cup is overflowing with joy! Thank you for reading!
