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!

Ella Neifing: Leadership

    Hi! My name is Ella Neifing. I am a Psychology major from Portland, Oregon and the President of the 2023-24 class of Setons! Alongside Setons I am also involved in GSBA and the Ambassador program at Gonzaga (I also love a good intramural game). When not in Setons meetings you can find me trying new coffee shops, going on drives with friends, searching for new music, and going on hikes and walks. My favorite season is summer and I love going to concerts, especially outdoor ones. My favorite way to spend my time though is at Setons events! The highlights of my week are going to weekly service and Wednesday night meetings. 


    When I reflect on the three pillars of Setons, the one that I have grown the most in is definitely leadership. Setons has taught me so much about being a friend, woman, and leader. I am so proud and grateful to be leading this incredible group of girls and feel I learn something new from them every day about what it truly means to lead. Whether it’s Maddie being the absolute best partner in crime and gracefully excelling in her role as VP, Alyssa and Bella meeting every curve ball thrown their way with a creative and effective solution on the spot while putting on Charity Ball, seeing Jenna’s insurmountable joy and encouraging energy shine through at every setons function, Maddie E. being the most amazing role model and Junior Advisor always giving me the best advice, or witnesses the sheer dedication, love, and care each and every one of the other 29 girls in this group has for who we are and what we do, I am constantly in awe of how lucky I am to get to create something so special with these girls and to see firsthand what true leadership looks like. I am forever changed and inspired by my Setons sisters and feel beyond lucky to have them in my life. I have learned so much about myself and feel I have grown so much in leadership from the opportunities Setons has given me, and I have these girls to thank.
