"Hello everyone. I am incredibly honored to be your SASE president this year! Three years ago, I never would have imagined leading and being at the forefront of such a wonderful and diverse community. SASE has given me so many great opportunities to improve professionally and socially. There were so many great mentors and officers that I looked up to as role models and that pushed me out of my comfort zone to improve and better myself. I want everyone to be able to tell the same story to a company rep, or their friends, or their family: that they found an amazing community and a wonderful group of people that pushed them to improve yet were people they could fall back on. I look forward to meeting all of you this year!"
