CAB is fun, CAB is a great change of pace from studying and gives me dates to look forward to. CAB has an event for everyone, we're designed to be inclusive, and I've met so many wonderful people from attending the events who I otherwise would never had met. You'll do new things, meet new people, get prizes, and you'll make some cool memories.

What is your favorite thing about coming to CAB events?
My favorite part about CAB is seeing the impact of each event on Cleveland State's students. Seeing an event brighten the day of even just one student, makes the countless hours of prep all worth it. Seeing the team come together from brainstorming event ideas to setting up the event is such a great experience. I have met some of the most creative, driven, and supportive people through CAB.

What Disney movie character best describes you?
Although he is not an original Disney creation, I relate to Kermit the Frog. He is from the middle of nowhere with dreams of becoming something. Deciding to pick up everything and go he ventures to the big city to accomplish his dreams. On his travels he meets friends on the way that become his family. Kermit sees the best in everyone and loves putting on a show. I find his story and mine are very similar and I strive to be as kind as Kermit.

What is your favorite thing about coming to CAB events?
You should come to CAB events because they're always a good time and you get free stuff just for showing up. You'd be robbing yourself of free stuff and good times.

What is your favorite thing about coming to CAB events?
CAB has created so many memories for me and attending the events would most definitely create fun memories for you! As CSU is mainly a commuter school, coming to see what CAB has to offer will more than likely create a better college experience. You can win sweet prizes, make new friends, and learn something new!
What Disney movie character best describes you?
I would say Mike Wazowski is someone I not only most resemble but look up to. Mr. Wazowski not only has faced adversity but struggled with fitting into society's expectations. Although his self confidence was a journey he found a way to put a smile on his face and make people laugh!
