Hey there Yoties!! My name is Destiny Shavers and I'm your RHA Director for the academic year. I’m a 6th year Psychology major and I am super excited to connect and engage with you all. As Director, I will enjoy my time striving to enhance your residential experience through RHA planning, advocating on your behalf through various committees I sit on, and hosting fun programs along with my team for you all to enjoy. RHA has so much in store for our residents this year, and I can’t wait to see everything come to plan. A couple of fun facts about me is that I love watching psychological thrillers, my favorite animal is an elephant, and I absolutely enjoy going to amusements parks or having competitive game nights with family and friends. It’s going to be a great year Yotes; try new things, get involved, and have fun! If you see me around, don’t be afraid to wave or say hi. I’m friendly and love to chat! :)
