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.

Rlyee Coney: Service

    Hi! My name is Rylee Coney and I am a sophomore at Gonzaga. I am an Applied Mathematics Major with a concentration in Physics. I'm not only involved in Setons but also many other aspects of Gonzaga. I am a part of the Gonzaga Women's Rowing Team, a Research Assistant for the Mathematics Department, and a Lab TA for Physics. I am from Anaheim, California, and have lived there my entire life until moving to Spokane for college. You'll either find me working out, doing homework, binge-watching a Netflix show, or at any and every coffee shop nearby! I am so incredibly grateful for Setons and the relationships I have gained, as it has allowed me to meet so many people I would have not met otherwise
    I have the pleasure of writing about service! To me, service is one of our most important pillars of Setons. It's what makes us who we are and allows us to make a lasting impact on those around us. Through Setons, I've been able to become more involved with the Spokane community. This spring semester, I've had the pleasure of volunteering once a week at the Isaac Foundation. The Isaac Foundation is an after-school center for youth with autism. By volunteering here, I've been able to see what an impact it makes. Showing up and sitting with the kids at the center speaks volumes to them, and of course a game of Uno too! Being able to carve out 2 hours of my week to help make others feel welcome and smile a little more is something each Seton has the privilege of doing through service. I hope you got to know a little more about me! Thank you!
