Hero This Week: Alex Kimura!

9/3/2010
Hero This Week: Alex Kimura!
Chosen By: Anne Taylor Wilson

Alex is one of the most beautiful individuals--inside and out--that I have ever met. She never ceases to amaze me. She is smart, driven, talented, and undeniably hilarious. I will never forget when she stood up at her first Epsilon Delta meeting and made an announcement about starting a new program on campus, FeelGood, to end world hunger. I remember thinking, "Dang, This girl is legit!" Alex did not waste a minute of her time getting involved on campus or in this sorority. After being here for only a semester, Alex had founded a new organization on campus, became a Spirit Master, and took on the daunting task of Spring Sing Props, all while maintaining outstanding grades and dealing with the difficult and unexpected diagnosis of her sister. She's a rock star. Alex really blew me away during recruitment week. As I said before, the girl is down right funny. Her sense of humor and with are unmatched. She was not afraid to bust out her inner-nerd and act like a complete goofball during the theme skit. Plus, she allowed herself to be vulnerable & opened up by sharing her testimonial at preference, which I think we all would agree extremely moving. Not only that, but she can dougie with the best of them, make a mean grilled cheese. Alex, even though you are my adopted little sister, I truly look up to you and am often awestruck at how outgoing, hardworking, and optimistic you are. I love you, little! Remember: Game Face, Bring it On :)
