Why did you become a State Officer?: I became a State Officer because I believe that I hold many qualities which could positively contribute to the State Officer Team and BPA as a whole. I’m a people person, and I like to help people out, so my hopes were to follow the requests of the members of BPA and improve as much as possible.
What does being a State Officer mean to you?: Being a State Officer is a position of honor. To have been one of the few chosen to represent Massachusetts as a whole really means a lot. To have gotten this much trust and to have been givin this chance is a blessing on its own and I hope to fulfill all of my expectations and carry out my duties.
What does BPA mean to you?: BPA is a life- changing organization. I say that with 100% truth; the changes in myself, and that I’ve witnessed in others, is remarkable. BPA offers so much to its members, and its up to the members to put it to good use. I have personally learned so many skills, including public speaking, networking, and how to manage my time. I’ve seen members even from my own school chapter who have transformed into true business professionals over the course of just one year. The results are obvious, BPA means a lot to me. I hope to continue to grow with this program.
