What’s An ROA Part XI: Kaytee
Whoa! Bet you didn’t think that there would be any more ROA’s for you to meet here on the OCC Blog after last semester when we profiled 10 of the regional outreach ambassadors. But now, at long last, is the final installation in the series: Kaytee, the new ROA from Hofstra.
Hey guys, my name is Kaytee Lozier and I’m the new ROA for Maryland, West Virginia, and D.C. I’m a junior Print Journalism major at Hofstra University and I am co-president of the ONE Hofstra Chapter. I’m originally from New Milford CT, and before that I lived in Fontana CA.
Until I began college I never really paid attention to politics. I didn’t feel personally attached to it in any way because I didn’t feel that I played much of a role in our political process. I have always been interested in international affairs and the state of third world countries, and I had done some volunteering for Invisible Children, but I have always felt there wasn’t much I could do about the state of the world in general. That was before I happened to find the ONE Campaign last summer. I realized that this could be the perfect opportunity to make a difference with a stronger voice, the voice of 2 million others who feel as passionate about these issues as I do.
Once I became involved with the ONE Campaign, the Campus Challenge was the perfect way to rev my engine. Finally I had a way to reach out to people and make this movement grow! After the Power 100 summit, I feel more prepared than ever to unite Hofstra students under this cause. If you go to school in any of my regions and you want to start a chapter at your school, please contact me and I’ll help you get started!
Aside from battling extreme poverty, I like to play tennis, play video games, and.. actually battling extreme poverty is pretty much my favorite thing to do nowadays, with Guitar Hero as a close second!
