Hi! My name is Audrey Balester (she/her/hers), and I am a first-year student from New Lenox, Illinois. I am double majoring in English and Psychology. This is my first semester as an Honors Outreach Ambassador, and my second semester in the Honors Program. I also volunteer at the UI Hospitals & Clinics in the Cancer Inpatient Unit and am a residence hall tour guide. A fun fact about me is that I love music and I collect vinyl records! Please reach out if you have any questions about the Honors Program or about the university in general!
