Intended Liberal Arts and Business Majors:
Economics and Marketing Target Language: Spanish Email: sbeleau@tulane.edu Academic Achievements: I was among the first inductees into our school’s National Honor Society chapter. I graduated third in my class and as the first Black graduate at the institution. Extra-curricular Activities: In my school’s student council, I served as a class representative during my freshman and junior year, treasurer my sophomore year, and student body president my senior year. I played on my school’s varsity basketball team since my 8th grade year. During my senior year I was team captain and nominated as an All-District Player. I was a founding member of one of the four houses within our house system (think Harry
Potter) and served as house volunteer coordinator my junior year.
Outside of school I worked multiple jobs including math tutoring, wildlife work, food service, and I currently work at a local rock climbing gym. Community Service: I have fed homeless on multiple occasions through local organization “The Hub Ministries.” I have volunteered two years in a row at a special needs prom for those who did experience their first ones. I’ve helped serve food and supplies to impoverished school children with a local church. International Experience: In the summer of 2018 I was blessed to be able to spend three weeks in Barcelona, Spain with some longtime family friends who lived there. I have not been out of the country on any other occasion — yet. Personal Interests/Hobbies: I’m very passionate about civil rights, social justice and the pursuit of equity in America. Additionally I love to travel, explore, and try new things. In my freetime I play basketball, read, play video games and binge Netflix until I’ve run out of shows to watch (which is normally pretty quick because
I’m picky). Three Words to Describe Himself: Ambitious, brave, spontaneous. Fun Fact from Sage: I’m kinda artistic, mostly in the visual realm:
I’m good at drawing, painting, writing (sometimes), photography (very much a novice) and poetry. Through all of these mediums
I feel like I can express myself. Ironically I love listening to music the most out of all of these and yet I have little musical talent.
