Welcome back everyone! Our first podcast of the fall 2022 semester is with Jackie Lepore who graduated from St. John's University Staten Island Campus in 2021 as an English major and obtained a masters degree in English from St. John's University in 2022. She held multiple roles during her undergraduate years such as being the founder and president of English club, president of sorority Kappa Beta Gamma, senior senator in student government, and secretary of the Italian club.

Join Courtney (our Vice President and host of Storm Chasers) as we discuss Jackie's experience in these different positions during her time as a student along with what it was like for her studying English at different academic levels, what it is like to now teach English at her alma mater, the impact St. John's has had on her life what she aspires to do in the future.
