About Alyssa
I am currently studying my third year here at the University of Arizona. I am majoring in Business Management with minors in Spanish and Non-Profits. Aside from being the Conference Administration for NCLC, I am involved in many other campus activities including Alpha Kappa Psi Professional Business Fraternity, HERO (High-school Eller Recruitment Officers), PWBA (Professional Women in Business Association), SCNO (Students Consulting Non-Profit Organizations) and the UA Philharmonic Orchestra. I work in the Undergraduate Office at the business school as a front desk assistant and Student Coordinator for the honors academic advisor. I spend my free time interning at Primavera Foundation (a Tucson non-profit designed to help develop pathways out of poverty) as an assistant to the Marketing Director, and as a Special Events Intern with the Boys and Girls Club of Tucson. After graduation, I would like to continue my work in these areas by becoming a charity event planner. I have two tortoises, and take flying trapeze lessons as a hobby.

About Ana
Hello! This year I am the External Relations Chair. I have been for the last three years and I am super excited for this year's conference since it has taken a bit of a twist, a great twist! I am an accounting major and plan to one day have my own tourism business, plan events and of course handle the accounting. :) My favorite hobbies are volleyball, running and what I am most passionate about is helping others. I recently joined an organization, ScholarshipsAZ, which gives students resources to attend college; I love knowing that I helped with the process of my communitie's education. I am bilingual; me encanta hablar espanol! and Like anybody else I love Apples with Peanut Butter, crunchy Peanut Butter. See you soon!
