Javi Reyes ‘14“Over the past two years, LMU has encouraged me to push myself beyond my comfort zone, inside and outside the classroom. When I first became a Lion, I realized that the remainder of my collegiate experience would be completely what I made of it, so I challenged myself early on to meet new people by joining on-campus organizations. I soon became an active member of a handful organizations I felt strongly about, found myself inspired to work hard and make their voices resonate more clearly across campus. Not too soon after I was involved in various leadership positions, including Co-President of the Salsa Club as well as President of the Latino Business Student Association (LBSA). As a leader, I’ve learned to take risks and how to successfully lead others -- not necessarily by taking control of the reins, but by pushing others towards greatness from behind.”

“Although I had made wonderful friends at UCI and received good grades, I just didn’t feel as if I fit in.”

She was shocked when one of her professors noticed she had missed class: “I was taken aback that he 1) remembered my name, 2) noticed I hadn’t been in class, 3) cared enough to ask where I was.”
