Leader Profile: Hazel Todd

          This week's featured leader is Hazel Todd who has already had an impressively successful year leading her Campus Corps members serving at MSU-Billings. Hazel is a Montana native, born and raised in the town of Butte. She left her hometown for her college years which were spent in Bozeman, MT studying at MSU. Hazel is proud of her Montana roots and shares that "I like telling people I am from Montana; I feel really proud to be a part of such a beautiful place!” . This year she has made a new home for herself in Billings and has already, in these past few months, created for herself a strong sense of community in her new town. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, baking, and running.  Hazel has big plans for next year, as she intends to move all the way to Austin, Texas!

         In college Hazel focused her studies in the field of Family Sciences and foresees the pursuit of a masters degree in Social Work in her future. As a student at MSU Hazel was a member of Campus Corps and her experiences serving others seem to have had a lasting effect on her, as involvement in community service has become an important component of her life. Hazel's lifelong commitment to service is illustrated in her vision for her future; specifically, she explains that in 10 years she sees herself "working at an organization that values service as much as I do". Wherever that may be will certainly be lucky to have such a passionate, fun, and dedicated addition to their organization!
