Nilaja Montgomery
WHAT I'VE DONE During college, I was a member of the Women's Varsity Crew/Rowing Team, Soul Revue, Union Board, and I won Hoosier Idol my freshman year. During my sophomore year, I helped to found the Upsilon Chapter alongside 6 other beautiful women. I also helped to manage the Finish Line in College Mall and continued serving on Union Board. I created the first Upsilon Chapter website and served as publicity chair and social chair. During my junior year, I continued to work for Finish Line Company as well as serve on Union Board on several committees. I also helped to form U.L.I.Y., Upsilon's ongoing service mentoring project. During my junior year, I also began to serve Upsilon as chapter President and led us in winning several Greek awards. I also helped to found the first African American cycling team to compete in the 55 year old tradition known as the Little 500 races. During my senior year, I also served as president for one semester and had helped usher in two new lines: Interlude and Mosaic. I began singing with True Foundation, a recording gospel group started in Bloomington, IN. I graduated in May 2006 and was married to a ONEderful man on September 1.
WHAT I'M DOING: I now reside in Georgia as the Parliamentarian and Historian of the Xi-Epsilon CHapter. Xi-Epsilon is very active in the community with service projects ranging from Project Open Hand to Habitat for Humanity. I am currently working as a personal trainer for one of the on-post gyms at Fort Benning. I am also a part of two coalitions called GPAN (Georgia Coalition for Physical Activity) and Live Healthy Columbus. I still record with True Foundation in the Chicago area. I visit sisters around the US while awaiting my husband's return from his military missions.
WHAT I ASPIRE TO DO I want to attend graduate school in the very near future. I hope to one day own a Wellness center. I also hope to serve on the National Board. I am very excited about the strides that Theta Nu Xi has taken. I want to be a part of the ever-changing journey that Theta Nu Xi makes in the next 10 years.
