Saint Stories

"The women in this story continue to elevate the representation of women in STEM. Representation is important not only for those being represented but for members of systems that are becoming more inclusive. Saint Martin’s is so proud to have played even a small role in the lives of these incredible ladies."

"I loved Irina and Jeff's classes as they were so personable and genuinely interested in what we had to say. It was one of the first times I felt like an adult did more than just hear what I had to say, but actively listen and engage with it. It made me more invested in my education and how I could grow not only in school but as a person."

I thought being an Orientation Leader would be a fun experience, I love meeting new people. I also love Saint Martin’s, so I was excited to share that with new students. I learned more about myself, and the University, and I want to represent our university well. 

I knew that if I wanted to be successful in that environment then I was going to have to grow in certain areas of my life. It was a struggle and it took time. However, I got there.

"I would recommend the [Washington State Legislative] internship program ... In my time I got to sit firsthand and watch as our reps balanced diverse constituent interests, worked tirelessly to understand complex political issues, and engaged in bipartisanship on a regular basis."

“The MBA program and the content helped me understand that there is so much more in the leadership of organizations than managers and employees. My program of study helped me clarify that I wanted to be in a leadership role where I could be helping people, developing others, and learning from other people as well.”
