Leadership Positions

Highlighting my leadership positions is pivotal as it sheds light on my ability to take charge, guide teams, and steer projects toward their desired outcomes. These roles are a testament to my capacity to make decisions, motivate individuals, and navigate challenges.

Robotic Cardinals - Founder and President (4 years)

As the founder and leader of the Robotic Cardinals at Lamar University, my journey has been both challenging and fulfilling. Launching this club stemmed from a desire to extend my high school robotics passion into my college years. Despite no existing platform at Lamar, my determination led to the creation of a team that soon caught the attention of our community, drawing in support from local businesses and institutions.

Our efforts in robotics did not go unnoticed; we were featured on local news, which amplified our reach and impact. The College of Engineering recognized our proactive leadership and entrusted us with the "Project Engineer Camp," which, due to our successful management, became an annual event, enhancing our funding and visibility.

Admittedly, the journey wasn't smooth. The pandemic brought our momentum to a halt, and we faced the reality that our members lacked the experience needed for higher-level competitions. This realization was pivotal; we refocused, capitalizing on our capabilities, and fostered a culture of continuous learning and perseverance.

Today, our organization stands strong, equipped with over $60,000 in robotics resources, and a remarkable partnership with Exxon and BISD. This year marks a significant milestone as we launch our first competitive robotics team, CARDS, aiming high for VEX University and VEX AI challenges. This is a testament to the unwavering spirit and the collective drive of our members, under visionary leadership, to keep pushing the boundaries of what we can achieve in robotics.


Student Engineering Council - President

As President of Lamar University's Student Engineering Council (SEC), my leadership skills have been tested and proven across a wide and diverse constituency of over a thousand students. In this pivotal role, I've been responsible for steering the College of Engineering's student body, facilitating connections between students and industry, and enhancing student involvement and academic success.

This past fall, my initiatives included overhauling the SEC's informational framework, establishing a sustainable organizational system that integrates historical data and sets a foundation for the future. I successfully led the coordination of Lamar's largest engineering career fair, attracting approximately 80 companies and offering significant networking opportunities for students.

Additionally, I've improved inter-organizational communication by implementing tools such as Google Calendar and Excel, ensuring a cohesive and collaborative environment within the engineering department. These efforts reflect my commitment to leadership excellence and my ability to manage complex, large-scale student organizations effectively.

Serving as a Lamar University Ambassador has been a privilege that underscores my commitment to leadership excellence. In this role, I transcend the bounds of leading a singular organization or college to represent the university as a whole. We, the Ambassadors, are the epitome of Lamar's leadership, embodying the spirit of the university in various capacities— from volunteering at community events to spearheading university initiatives and engaging with alumni and donors.

Our training is rigorous, encompassing etiquette, advanced organizational and time-management skills, and dynamic leadership techniques.
