About SGSU

Hey! My name is Isabelle Alamilla, I'm from Salt Lake City, Utah, and I am currently working towards my BA in Business Management and Business Analytics. I am a third-year here at Seattle University, and in my free time, I love to hang out with friends, watch movies, and find new restaurants to eat at. If you ever see me walking around on campus, come and say hi!!

My name is Sophia Cofinas, I am thrilled to be the Senate Chair for SGSU this year! I am a third-year from San Diego, CA, and I am double majoring in Public Affairs and International Studies and minoring in Spanish.

My name is Ben Jones-Rice. I am a born and raised Seattlite, and a fourth-year at SU majoring in Economics and Accounting, with a minor in International Studies. I am a dog lover with two dopey doggos named Ruby and Joey. I play on the Ultimate frisbee team and am a member of the Model United Nations club along with a few others. I have always been strongly geared toward giving back to my community and helping those around me as much as I can, in any and all ways. As an SGSU representative, I hope to advocate for students' needs, assist in the implementation of policy to better address community issues, and be someone you can count on to tell it to you straightly. Navigating university can be a difficult time and life doesn't pause, sadly, just because we want it to. I hope to be able to help navigate those stresses and ease them to the best of my ability, especially around Academics.
