Why did you want to become apart of Delta Sigma Theta? Why do you wish to pledge for Delta Sigma Theta? What made you choose Delta Sigma Theta as your sorority?

After learning the history of the sorority, knowing that the founders' first public act was participation in the 1913 Women's Suffrage March, made Delta Sigma Theta an obvious choice for me.I knew and believed in the core values of the organization around public service and wanted to be a part of making a contribution to the organization.

I hope that my work in the public sector as a School Psychologist for my community will connect us to resources and opportunities we can use to help others. Also a lifetime of leadership skills and genuine love for people within my community.
