Since joining RSLP how have you grown as a leader?
Since becoming a Robertson scholar, my perspective has broadened immeasurably. The conversations that I’ve gotten to have with other scholars have changed the way I see the world for the better, allowing me to better understand how crucial it is that different types of leaders work together to positively change society. Community summer, in particular, helped me appreciate how diverse backgrounds and experiences can contribute to a dynamic community.
