      I organized events for the Mines LGBTQ+ community and their allies to meet and take a break from their responsibilities; connected with other clubs (like Mines Green Team and Student Advocates Against Violence and for Education) to host joint events; established relationships with campus administrators (particularly in the McBride Honors Program and Career Center) to connect LGBTQ+ students with various scholarships and job opportunities; and helped improve the club's SAFEZone program, which educates people on campus about LGBTQ+ issues and encourages people to be better allies.
