This past year has been amazing with Phi Theta Kappa, my experience as the current President will help our honor society immensely.

Lamia Monir

As a business major, marketing has always been one of my passions. Thus, I have always been very active in advertising any event, service, or product for my clubs as well as my family. Besides the great interest in the marketing field, I have always held a positive reputation in communicating with people. Since I have had customer service experience I am known to be very influential, optimistic, informative, and encouraging in work places, school, and amongst my relatives. So, I believe that I am highly qualified to hold the position of VP of Marketing and Membership. Besides the aforementioned qualities, another reason that reinforces my qualities of holding this position is that I have been fulfilling the duties of VP of Marketing and Membership of Alpha Nu Xi chapter for this past whole year. So, I have been involved with all of the events and activities of Phi Theta Kappa as well as attended the regional conference. Lastly, for my deep interest in Phi Theta Kappa I have actually been involved with Phi Theta Kappa even before achieving the membership through my friends. Phi Theta Kappa has held a very important part in my life through its various programs, events, community services, as well as scholarships. Thus, I want to return its favor by dedicating myself to Phi Theta Kappa as an officer for another year. I am greatly willing to contribute as much of time as possible in being a worthy Vice President of Membership and Marketing. I assure Phi Theta Kappa that I will be a very devoted officer and will try my best to recruit eligible and potentially dedicated members. I hope that I will get the chance to prove my qualities and skills to Phi Theta Kappa.
