    My name is Becca Bandstra I am a senior here at EWU studying Visual Communication Design with a minor in Communications; I enjoy all aspects of design and enjoy being able to design for ASEWU.

    This is my second year here at ASEWU and it continues to be my goal of making sure the students are informed on all issues going on both outside and within the University through Graphic Design.

    My name is Kristin Milton and I am the Director of Elections. I am currently a junior in the Communication Disorders program studying speech and hearing science. As Director of Elections I want to make the elections process more exciting and education based as well as more convenient for ALL of our students to participate. I would like to encourage our students to get involved with ASEWU either by running for a position or by making an educated vote in the Primary and General Elections. Last year just 7% of our student population voted in the general election- this year we are striving to increase this by at least 5%. So to all EWU students: if nothing else, get out there and vote on April 26 and May 8 and remember "This is your world, shape it or someone else will."

    I am currently a sophomore at Eastern Washington University and am studying government.  I am originally from the west side of the state, but have made eastern Washington my home. I am extremely passionate about government which has driven me to be the best Legislative Liaison that I could possibly be.  I consider myself a bit of a political nerd and love anything and everything to do with civic participation. The best part of my job is that I have the wonderful opportunity to serve 11,000+ students in Olympia during this legislative session. I am constantly learning how to be a leader and how the political process is ran. I love helping students get involved in society and am constantly encouraging people to be civically involved! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

    I'm currently a sophomore at Eastern Washington University. I graduated from Cheney High School, and decided to stay here to complete my college studies as well. In March of 2009 I began my first job as court clerk at the Cheney Municipal Court, where I still presently work, along side my ASEWU duties. I am majoring Business Administration with an emphasis in Management, and hope to then go onto the Public Administration master's program. My minors are Spanish and Visual Communications & Design. I have a passion for improving and expanding whatever I can. I'm always seeking out knowledge and will never turn down an opportunity to grow. I love to please, and sometimes have a hard time saying, "No," but have learned that can't do everything at once!

    My priorities are family & friends, school, work, and fun! My hobbies include horseback riding, graphic design, cooking, and painting. Fun fact: I have a miniature horse named Clancy, who is destined to live about 35 more years. My fiancé isn't so ecstatic about that!

    My name is Lindsey Petroni and I will be graduating this Spring with a degree in Management - Human Resource emphasis and a minor in Communications. I was fortunate enough to be a member of the Volleyball team at Eastern for the last four seasons and am really looking forward to seeing all the other activities and events Eastern has to offer!

    As the Office Assistant I am able to assist the executives and other members of ASEWU in any event planning or projects they may be working on. I love being in the heart of the student government and want to use this opportunity to explore all the things Eastern can provide students. I look forward to helping others get connected with their student government and using their voice to see change. It is a system created for the students, to help them get heard and I feel very lucky to be a part of SOMETHING BIG, like ASEWU!
