Hi! My name is Kira, and I am a third year at the University of Nevada, Reno. I am studying English and Secondary Education with a minor in Chinese. I am currently a writing academic tutor for Nevada Athletics. I have also been an undergraduate consultant at the University Writing & Speaking Center, a service open to over 20,000 students. This role has led me to TA as an undergraduate as well as work as a Writing Fellow. Within the Alpha Theta Chapter, I am currently an Academic Co-Chairholder.

Setting boundaries is a powerful tool if you are feeling burnt out from balancing life, school, work, relationships or extracurriculars. We need to create a space that allows for our success and happiness because we all deserve to live a happy, fulfilling life. This workshop will go over what boundaries are, the different types, as well as how to set boundaries and communicate those effectively.

Hello! My name is Erika Saligan *Locket* and I crossed Spring 2017 at Psi Chapter located in University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I graduated May 2020 with a degree in Integrative Biology and I currently work as a chief scribe.

My involvement in Kappas include being program educator, vice president external, philanthropy, cultural, alumni/sisterhood, recruitment and fundraising. I wanted to stay involve after graduation so I currently serve as the Director of Events on Kappas’ National Leadership. During college, I was on the executive board of the Philippine Student Association and I interned at my university’s Asian American Cultural Center.

I love bringing people together and supporting others in any way I can. I also enjoy listening to music, bullet journaling and watching shows/movies. I have 3 plants and I’m so excited my propagations are finally growing roots!!

Do we suck at building relationships? Or do we just not have the courage to take the first step? We all know the importance of building relationships but not a lot of us know exactly how to do it. When we figure out how to do it we end up not realizing that maintaining a relationship is just as important as building a relationship. This is a workshop not only for professional development but also for personal development as well, because relationship is essential in waking your life goals come into reality. Important relationships help you go far.

Some of the topics will include how to find your mentor or how to get someone to advocate for you, the power of asking, the power of speaking up, etc.

Hello! I am Joann and I am currently based in the Research Triangle Park area in North Carolina. This means I am about 30 minutes away from my whole chapter at NC State and I’m 15 minutes away from Duke university and UNC Chapel Hill. I graduated in 2017 with a degree in background in business marketing and data analytics. After graduation I stayed in the area and joined the global technology industry.

After a few years of working through the industry I am currently working for Lenovo as a market intelligence researcher for the company’s corporate strategy office. In this role, I try to understand and predict what area should our company invest in and serve as a subject matter expert in telling our leaders what our competitors are doing so that they can further make decisions taking into consideration the needs of our customer and the market.

I have many interests outside of being a sister and working in corporate America. Some include getting involved in nonprofit organizations specialize in international affairs, salsa / Latin dancing, Chinese dancing, and enjoying theatre arts.

 

The light in our hearts is so precious that we constantly feel the need to burn bigger, burn brighter for others— this can lead to compassion fatigue. But you can’t light the way for others while your flame is out! This workshop will focus on a five-level game plan to maintain balance being the most supportive sister you can possibly be while protecting that flame.
