As a junior in high school, you could find Ricky Santiago doing two things: discussing politics or helping people. Never shy to lend a hand, Ricky realized that he wanted to create a career out of the two things he loved most. Now at NJCU, Ricky has obtained a foundation for success in learning about political science while serving two terms as the student body president as SGA President from 2019-21. Ricky intends to pursue a career in higher education administration to continue leading and developing the student leaders of the future.
