Leadership Experience

Northeastern Climbing Team-

The Northeastern Climbing Team is a nationally competitive (4th in the country in 2016) indoor rock climbing team.

  • During my freshman year at Northeastern, I worked with another student to meet with university athletics and write the proposal

  • I have been on the team and have held the positions of Vice-President and President

  • In 2016 I received the Collegiate Ambassador Scholarship which is given at a national level to those that demonstrate leadership for their team and the general climbing community

  • As a senior I stepped back and let a new generation take the lead without active help from the founders, I still am a member of the team and offer advice to the new leadership

What I learned - 

  • I have refined my leadership skills

  • Event coordination

  • Vision and follow through

  • Management of a 30 member team and 6 member executive board

  • Communication skills at all levels from team member to national governing body

Karate Instructor-

  • I started taking karate classes when I was 8 years old

  • After being a student for about 6 years, I started volunteering as a teacher for two years

  • When I was 16, I moved up to being a paid instructor leading classes and managing other instructors

  • This experience definitely led to my later leadership at Northeastern on the climbing team

What I learned - 

  • Leadership

  • Management with classes of 20 kids and several junior instructors

  • Motivation factors
