Elise is a full-time student and will graduate with her bachelor's in business management this coming Spring. She loves hiking, biking, camping, and pretty much all things outdoors. She and her husband hiked the Pacific Crest Trail for 7 ½ months in 2018. It was the best experience of their lives and the pivotal point in which they decided to find a way to eventually move somewhere colder and mountainous.

Aside from her personal life, her professional life consisted of administrative work as a Document Controller in the Oil & Gas industry. She would like to continue doing document control or begin working in project management. Currently, Elise is an intern with the Epilepsy Foundation of TX where she manages outreach efforts to get Texans certified in Seizure First-Aid.

Greetings to all!
​My name is Mona Farley, I am a Biology major and a recent SGA Senior Senator for the College of Science and Technology (CST). I begin my educational pursuit at Houston Community College (HCC), where I became a student mentor. I supported students in first-year college courses and encouraged them to establish a positive connection to the college. As an enrollment service assistant at the College, I not only played my role in supporting with registration and admissions duties, but I became a direct resource to many students. I also assisted with events that promoted diversity/inclusion and empower the student body and community. I am currently serving as a Community Engagement Intern at the Epilepsy Foundation of Texas through UHD Center for Community Engagement & Service Learning. I am excited to be a part of SGA. I looked forward to bringing my passion for serve and inclusivity in this role as CST Senior Senator, to serve the student body to the best of my ability. ​
