Catherine Steiner - Service

     Hello! My name is Catherine Steiner, I’m from Edmonds, Washington, and I am an English Major with a Concentration in Writing and a double minor in Digital Marketing and Entrepreneurial Leadership. I come from a big Zag family, three out of my four siblings went to Gonzaga so I’ve been going to Family Weekend and visiting campus since I was 7. A little fun fact is that my two older sisters were also in Setons, so I have had a love for this club since I was young! I am currently a part of the Setons Executive Board as this year's class President! As President I am responsible for leading all meetings, and ensure we continuously uphold our pillars of sisterhood, service and leadership. My favorite part about being in Setons has been meeting so many wonderful girls, and being more involved both on and off campus! Outside of Setons, I am a part of the Hogan Entrepreneurial Leadership program which has taught me so many communication, collaboration and leadership skills wh...

Alysa Kotsakis: Service

    Hi! My name is Alysa Kotsakis. I am from Mililani, HI, central on the island of Oahu. I am a Nursing student and plan on becoming a Nurse Practitioner. I also play drums for the Bulldog Band and love playing and traveling for the basketball games. Besides the band, I love to spend my free time with the Hawaii Pacific Islander Club, Delight club, and especially Setons! 


    I will be reflecting on the service pillar. Service is an important part of my life both at home and at school. I volunteer at my Church’s Sunday School as an office aid and classroom assistant for the younger classrooms. I also volunteer with the Best Buddies Non-Profit which builds friendships for students with intellectual disabilities. These experiences with children have prepared me for my time serving the community through Setons. Once a week I volunteer with my small group at the Boys and Girls Club where I mostly work with Kindergarten and 1st Graders. We play games, work on homework, and chit-chat during supper. I love every minute there and will always remember the connections I made with the kids. The Setons also do a monthly service event and my favorite so far was with the Isaac Foundation where we handed out candy and did trick-or-treating activities for children with Autism. Both the weekly and monthly services have helped me connect with my community and I look forward to my time doing service every week!
