Este's Experiences: My International Travel

My first trip was to Deland Florida to attend the leadership conference hosted by the Delta Omicron chapter at Stetson University. I was very excited to give the headquarters updates to my home region and to experience the events that were part of the Leadership conference. The sessions that I attended were Ethics, Goal setting and Team building. These sessions were thought provoking, informative at times very funny. I was excited to see some my old friends and to interact with many of the new members. I was eager to hear and share some of our regional plans. I spoke to the members about some of the upcoming events that the International Officer team had planned for the year.

The conference ended very well and I was excited to hear that many of the new members were eager to go back home and find ways to get involved in the initiatives and programs that their chapters were working towards.

My next trip was to Delaware to participate in their Honors in Action conference at Delaware Tech although this was my first time in Delaware I was very happy to meet all of the members that I had been in contact with over the summer through Facebook and Skype and see what their goals were for the year while sharing the international officer team's goals for the year. I was very impressed to see how involved and how excited they were to get started with their own projects and how eager they were to help us with our own goals.

I attended a question and answer session where conducted by their regional officer. I was also glad to help answer some questions in an international level and offer help where I could.

My travels and experiences as an officer thus far have been unforgettable. It is always great for me to get to meet so many remarkable students and representing them has been a sobering experience. As Tameka, Danielle, Sarah Jeremy and I work on our goals for the year, I look forward to the Skype conferences I get to have with the members and the Team meetings I have every Tuesday.
