The Black Alumni Network at Catholic University fosters lifelong connections that celebrate shared experiences, promote inclusive excellence, and support the needs of Black and other traditionally underrepresented students, all while strengthening relationships with the greater Cardinal community as the University endeavors to “give to the Republic her best citizens.”

As a Black Alumni Network Board Member, I see a unique opportunity to bring together a community that has traditionally not maintained connections with alumni and the University. As a leadership-focused life coach, I am excited to use my skills and passions to foster an environment where Black alumni feel seen, valued, and empowered to contribute in meaningful ways.
