This summer I will start an internship with the Smithsonian Turtle Conservation Ecology Lab, an exciting first step into my career! I joined AKX in Fall 2023 and served as Vice President for my final semester. My favorite part has been spending time with my brothers and finding little critters on our hikes!🐢 I love this family with my whole heart and look forward to seeing where life takes everyone❤️🦈B.S. Environmental Science, minor in conservation studies and concentration in conservation. I plan to work as an Animal keeper helping with animal behavior and wellness of endangered species.

As this semester creeps closer to its end, I wanted to take a minute to recognize our eboard :D

Mav joined AKX in Fall 2022, and has held the position of Pledge Parent, Historian, and now President! They are an incredible leader, and an even more incredible friend.

Alexa is our Vice President! She pledged Fall 2023, and has since been such a fun light in our chapter! Shes so easy to talk to and a wonderful edition to our team.

Sophia is our current treasurer! She pledged along Alexa in Fall 23, and is so cool! Sophia will be studying abroad next semester and we will miss her so so much

Mark is our Secretary but has also worn the VP hat. He is our head of service and is always taking care of and looking out for our brothers. Between trash pickup organization, fire and tent building, and walking behind on our hikes to make sure no one is left behind, we wouldnt be where we are without you.

And Hope, hands down our funniest eboard member. Hope is currently Standards and pledged with Mark spring 2023. She is always around to cheer people up and make people laugh, and she always has the best ideas!

(Hi im lexi, im the historian and i pledged with Mav spring 2022, im not going to brag about myself but i love these people and the earth 🥰🌎)
