She/Her/Hers Hello, I am Grace Leete and I am a junior with a double major in Sociology and Child Studies from Danvers, Massachusetts. I love my family, my dog (+ my fish), and my lovely housemates! I am excited to be on SCCAP Staff and be engulfed in an organization where we all are striving to help others. Within the health and disabilities department, I am excited to see the ways in which we can bring awareness to the inequalities within our healthcare system.

He/Him/His HI, I'm a senior neuroscience major from Penryn, CA! I enjoy hiking and playing guitar. You can catch me singing with one of SCU's acapella groups Audiosync or doing on-campus research in the Cocas lab. I've had a wonderful experience volunteering with SCCAP in the past, so I'm super stoked to become more involved and contribute to this fantastic program.
