A simple connection is what led Campus business student Myracle St. Hilaire to being involved in the Campus Business Professionals of America.
“I recently moved from Virginia and didn’t know anyone at Campus, but I made my first friend, Cindy, on the first day,” St. Hilaire said. “She was interested in joining BPA but needed more members to start the club, so I decided to join. Now, I serve as the Vice President of the club. My role mainly involves supporting the team, being honest about my strengths and weaknesses, and ensuring open communication among members.”
Being involved in the Campus Business Professionals of America has provided several things for St. Helaire. From meeting new people to learning more about herself, the organization has been extremely beneficial for her.
“Being involved in BPA has shown me that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses,” St. Helaire said. “Working with people from different backgrounds and perspectives has helped broaden my own views. It’s also taught me that I’m stronger and smarter than I initially thought, and I’ve learned the importance of teamwork and perseverance in the face of challenges.”
After high school, St. Helaire is planning on pursuing IT.
“I find technology fascinating and enjoy learning about it,” St. Helaire said. “I also love meeting new people and connecting with others, which makes IT an exciting field for me.”
