"Public relations is totally my jam. I passionately believe that there is more good
in the world than bad - sometimes people just need help finding it. You could say
I'm the type of person who wants the work I'm doing to really matter. In my future
career, my time and energy will ideally be spent creating positive change in the world
around us. The clients I work with in a PR capacity now give me the chance to do that
in innovative ways."

Not attending Fresno State during my undergraduate career, I knew Fresno State was the university calling me to pursue my Masters. I am a current graduate student
in the Higher Education, Administration, and Leadership program and right when I stepped
on campus, I felt the sense of inclusion and acceptance that is portrayed through
every element of the university. My hopes are to contribute to the future and success
of the university and make an impact during my time here. I believe Fresno State is
going to provide me with the tools and skills to pursue my Doctorate and become a
leader in Higher Education after the HEAL program, and the relationships developed
here will last a lifetime. Go Dogs!"

I am a junior in the Smittcamp Family Honors College, majoring in Kinesiology- Physical Education with minors in Physical Science and
Food & Nutritional Sciences. This is my third year with the Fresno State Spirit Program-
1 year with the Fresno State Cheer Team and 2 years with the Fresno State Dance Team. I am honored to serve on the Coordinator Board for Camp Kesem at Fresno State for my second term (Camp Kesem is a national nonprofit organization that supports
kids whose parents have been affected by cancer). I am so fortunate that Fresno State
has given me all these opportunities to get involved and make a difference. Thanks Fresno State and Go Dogs!"

“In 2012, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which motivated me to work towards
a career as a clinical dietitian. I came to Fresno State from my hometown 8 hours south to accomplish that, and when
I checked to see if there was a club for diabetics like myself, I couldn't find one. This inspired me to establish the Diabetes Coalition at Fresno State and little did
I know, the impact DC would have on our community."

"My name is Linda Yang and I am a fourth year majoring in Psychology with a Pre-Medical
emphasis. Being born and raised here in Fresno, I had the privilege to see my community
develop around me. Fresno State was my top choice because it had the Health Career
Opportunities Program (HCOP), with the amazing advisor Dr. Juan Carlos Gutierrez.
It provides me with the opportunities and resources in order to succeed as a student
and reminds me of the deep connections I have with the Valley.
