Our Team.

Dave can typically be found in his dorm, or in any given space around campus, smiling and talking like there's no tomorrow—usually with dramatic gestures and accompanying expressions. Dave is can also often be seen dramatically gesturing on the stand as a member of Pomona College Mock Trial, leading tour groups across campus or exploring new beachside spots with friends. In addition to talking, Dave enjoys attending theatre and musical performances with friends, and impromptu Just Dance study breaks. Since January 2023, Dave has worked to facilitate informed dialogue and a curious, compassionate campus culture as President of the Pomona Student Union.

Hey y’all!! My name is Sasha and I’m a junior. I’m Haitian American and from Stamford, CT. I love painting, writing poetry, listening to scary stories/watching horror movies and baking/eating sweets. I also almost always have my headphones in, so it’s kind of like I have an endless soundtrack framing my life—it’s pretty fun :) 

I’m curious about a lot of things, but I think I’m most interested in how storytelling can be used to challenge systemic oppression, especially in Latin America, and how redistributing land and resources in developing nations can offer a necessary step to reinforcing food security, equity, and human rights protections. Unrelated to my major, but I’m also interested in the universe and cosmology— if I was good at science, I definitely would’ve loved to major in Physics/Astronomy!

Hey everyone, I’m Ben. I’m a junior history student studying abroad in Rome this semester. I’m a member of the E-Board and along with Zyad work as the Co-VP of Logistics. On campus I’m part of the club basketball team, the Claremont Colleges Debate Union, the Claremont Student Worker Alliance, and of course the Pomona Student Union

As well as being a student, I am a Professional Dancer and Choreographer who works across the Miami and Los Angeles scene. I spend my time sharing movement with the world, feeling my community in all of its rawness. For my prospective work, I am passionate about abolition (with respect to the carceral system), education access, and counterterrorism policy.

Hi everyone! My name is Trisha, and I am a junior at Pomona. I'm from the Bay Area, and some of my favorite hobbies are songwriting and singing, archery, making tea, (recently) watching political dramas, and spending time with friends and family.

One of the topics that interests me most right now is the ethics of biomedical research. Often, life-saving innovation can come at the cost of ethical practices, and defining the line that globally cannot be crossed is a challenge both idealistically and in implementation. I'm also interested in how gender affects access to health care and the amazing work nonprofits and activists are doing to try to better support women's and LGBTQIA health.
