Position on SG: Sophomore Class President
About me: Born and raised in Neenah, WI, I am the first Epley to attend Wheaton College. I come from a family of 5 kids and I fall in the last child category.
Why Wheaton? I loved the concept of chapel. I remember the day I came to tour the campus and chapel stuck out to me as uniquely Wheaton. Ultimately, I feel that God opened a door for me to study here at Wheaton.
What would you like to achieve by being a part of Student Government this year? I would like to see my peers fall in love with Christ resulting in greater love for one another with an insatiable passion for spreading the Gospel message outside of the Wheaton campus.
When you’re not studying or working on projects, where can you be found on campus? Everywhere. I consider myself quite mobile and not one to sit in one place for an extended period of time. I frequent Fisher and Smith-Traber dorms , Sam's, Starbucks, my dorm room, Buswell Library (specifically the basement study areas), and have occasionally found myself in the Traber 5 storage cage.
Describe Wheaton in three words: Eccentric, eclectic, enthusiastic.
Favorite Wheatonism: I appreciate the crazy SAGA traditions including the football player’s fanatic cheering, floating couples, and SAGA dates.
Most memorable experience at Wheaton: Traber 5 root-bear kegger and being the floor's leprechaun.
What makes Wheaton unique? Our motto: For Christ, and His Kingdom.
Favorite CU or campus event: So far, the Gungor concert was amazing and inspirational. God truly was glorified.
