ANNIE VOSS, PZ’26 | PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Annie is an assistant for the Research and Funding pillar. She is also Student Director for Sugar Bush Foundation and a member of Garden Club. When she isn’t chasing the Pitzer chickens through the compost, you can probably catch her laying out on the mounds or working in her capacity as Alumni-Board Representative for Student Senate. She also enjoys making her own Monday night snackie with friends, and competing for the best hammock spot on campus. 


NATHAN CHABIN, PZ’25 | NEUROSCIENCE AND SPANISH

There are many investigative tools that are effective in uncovering societal issues and can be used to encourage social reform. Through work with community partners, the Research and Fundraising pillar is dedicated to using research techniques to better our communities. Since joining this pillar, Nathan has learned about many community partners and ways to assist them in their respective projects.
