Annemarie Stanga: Leadership

 Hi! My name is Annemarie and I am from Denver, Colorado. I am majoring in Biochemistry and Spanish and minoring in Art History on a pre-med track. I am also a student ambassador and doing research on campus. In my free time, I love being in the mountains and doing everything outside, especially hiking! I also enjoy traveling and spending time with my family. My favorite thing about going to school in the Pacific Northwest is the coffee scene, so I'm always up for visiting a new coffee shop! One of our pillars as Setons is leadership. Leadership can take on many forms, and being a Seton means growing in both individual and communal leadership styles. By coordinating service events as one of our service chairs or by inviting a sister out for a coffee date, I have learned how to take initiative and connect with others. being a Setons has allowed me to grow in my own confidence while being surrounded by the most supportive sisters!

Andie Rosenwald- Sisterhood

Hello! My name is Andie Rosenwald, and I am this year’s treasurer! I was born and raised in Bellevue, WA and I love everything the PNW has to offer. At home I like to play with my dog, hike, cook, try new coffee shops, and spend time with my friends and family. I have a twin sister and an older brother, so it is extra special when our lives overlap at home over breaks! At Gonzaga, I am an honors student double majoring in Business Administration and Environmental Studies with a minor in Leadership Studies. I also work in the Office of Sustainability and am involved in Gonzaga Environmental Organization and Gonzaga Women in Business. Life is busy, but I love it!

While I have felt extremely connected to each pillar throughout this year, sisterhood has been perhaps the most impactful so far. I came early to one Wednesday night meeting and got chatting with a few of the other members who were there too. I had gotten an email that day about intramural registration closing soon, so I threw out an idea that had been bouncing around my mind: what if we started an intramural team? Knowing our group of fun, adventurous girls, I was not surprised when everyone was on board! We put together a team for flag football and were all so excited to play. I was nervous for our first game, especially because I did not know everyone super well, but we had a ton of fun! We ended up winning by something like 35 points, and I genuinely do not think I have ever been a part of such a supportive, positive sports team. We finished our season with an okay record but went on to win the whole playoff bracket and get shirts! It was such a great way to bond with my fellow Setons. We loved it so much that we decided to play again for 6 on 6 volleyball and are now in the middle of our season with a 3-0 record! The love and support that radiates through these intramural teams is incredible, and I am so thankful to be a part of such a wonderful sisterhood.
