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! Our group as a whole is also defined by leadership. I...

Lorraine Scott: Sisterhood

Hi! My name is Lorraine Scott and I’m from Denver, CO. I’m a chemistry major hoping to go into formulation chemistry like cosmetics in the future! I currently work as a TA/ tutor for organic chemistry in Hughes. A bit about me, I have two brothers, an older and younger and 2 adorable dogs named Lucy and Ruth back home! In my free time I love learning new crafts like cross stitch or crochet, baking cookies, playing games, and being with friends and family. I love listening to music to relax. I like all genres, but my top artists right now are Taylor Swift, The Lumineers, Hozier, and Tai Verdes. My favorite thing about Setons has been being able to meet the other 29 wonderful girls!
Sisterhood to me is such an important aspect of my life. While I don't have an actual sister, the female friendships I’ve made so far have taught me so much about caring for others and loving myself. I will always be appreciative of the lessons I’ve learned and the empowerment that has come from other women in my life. One of the biggest reasons I applied to Setons was the sisterhood aspect that I didn’t feel like I had found at Gonzaga my freshman year. My first year had lots of ups and downs with the transition into college life, and it was hard to find a place where I felt like I belonged. Since being a part of this amazing group of girls I can confidently say I have built lifelong friendships and found people who I can count on for anything. We recently went on our yearly retreat, which was filled with laughter, hugs, and reflections. Our relationships grew with every new activity from PowerPoint nights to dance battles. The amount of laughs shared and memories made would never have happened without these newfound sisters. I feel so lucky to have been a part of this club, as it has allowed me to grow as an individual while also gaining experience working closely towards a common goal of fostering a one-of-a-kind space for us to be our true selves.
