Meet Your 2023-2024 Senators

Hello! My name is Alicia Beaton and I am a secondary education English major. I love making a difference and being part of leadership opportunities. My love for leadership started back in high school when I became the Corps Commander of the AFJROTC program. I love being involved with college activities and extracurriculars. When I am not at the college you can find me spending time outdoors or with my friends and family. I love drawing and all things art related. I plan on getting an associate's degree in graphic design down the road. I have faced many hardships in my life, but I have never let them get in my way or put me down. Talk to me about leadership, life experiences, or anything in general. I am always happy to listen and help out if I can. 

My name is Carissa Batura and my major is Early Childhood Education. After I graduate HCC, I want to transfer to a 4 year university and after that, I want to get a job as a special Ed teacher.  I served as the secretary of the SAS club for 3 semesters. I am on the Childcare Subcommittee and OSDDS Committee. Talk to me about the SAS club if you have any questions about it and want to join it. You can also talk to me about childcare at HCC. Lastly, you can talk to me about disabilities - if you have one or even if you don’t have one and want to learn more about disabilities and how to get the help you need and how to advocate for yourself. I strongly believe that all students at HCC should have equal rights.

Jesenia is a new member of the Student Senate. She is always willing to lend a helping hand around the office. She wants to make sure the student’s voices are being heard. Besides Senate she is involved with a numerous of other clubs. She wants to help out the college in any way she can.
