Mary Maidment: Service

Hi! My name is Mary Maidment and I am from Portland, Oregon. I am studying neuroscience with a minor in psychology on the pre-med track. On campus, I work as an events assistant and as an Ambassador, frequently giving tours. When I have free time, I love to be outside hiking, shopping, intramural sports, workout classes, and spending time with friends. This year, my team won our softball and volleyball intramural championships!! I have been busy watching the new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season and just finished Scandal. What drew me to Setons was the Service pillar. Since I was young, my family has made an effort to be actively involved in different forms of service in our community. We spent time at our church, local food bank, community garden, and my favorite was making clothing bags for children in need. I loved picking outfits and giving toys, games, and other activities.

Alexis Hill: Leadership

    Hello! I am Alexis Hill and I am from Eagle River, Alaska! I was born in Spokane and moved to California when I was 5. After 6 years of living in California my family moved to Alaska and we have been there ever since. I am an avid zags basketball fan and am so excited to be here at Gonzaga! I'm majoring in Biology on a pre-PA track and am working towards getting a job as a medical assistant over the summer. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and a tortoise back home that I am always missing and my parents and a little sister in her junior year of high school. Back home, I work as a barista in a small coffee shop in my hometown.
                                          
    Leadership is an incredibly important pillar of Setons to me. I personally have experienced leadership within my time at my weekly service at one heart. One heart is an amazing service group part of a church in the Spokane area. I showed leadership within this group by guiding the kids through games and making sure everyone would play fair and be included. I loved having this leadership role because I feel it even further connected me to the kids within the group. I also love the leadership position I have within my media position. I feel that with a leadership position I am able to amplify the voices of our group and make our ladies seen and heard through our social media platforms. Setons has given me the opportunity to become a stronger and braver person within taking leadership roles and I am incredibly excited to grow even more within these roles!
