Claire Egerstrom

  • Junior, Sociology major

Throughout my time at UW-Milwaukee, I have had the opportunity to take on several leadership roles through on-campus positions in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and New Student Programs. These roles allowed me to grow personally, academically, and professionally and inspired my love for community-driven work. I am especially grateful to Hannah Mezel and Mike Dixon for their continued compassion and support during my time on campus. A year from now, I will be graduating with a degree in Sociology and certificates in Quantitative Social Data Analysis and LGBTQ Studies. At this time, I am not certain what career path I want to pursue, but I aspire to build positive connections and enhance the diversity of our communities
