I’m Juliana, and I am truly honored and proud to serve as the Co-Chair of the USC Alumni Network in New York alongside Neal.

When I first visited USC as a high school student, I was immediately drawn to the vibrant spirit and genuine engagement of the students, professors and alumni on campus. As a USC student, I had the privilege of experiencing that same energy and connection on both a national and global scale. Through opportunities like the USC Price Capstone in Detroit and the USC Marshall LINC Program in Hong Kong, I saw firsthand how USC alumni across the country and around the world generously give their time and support to the university they love. Their commitment continues to inspire me.

During my time at USC and beyond, I have been actively involved in the Trojan community — serving as Co-Director of the USC Chamber Ballet Company, Student Ambassador for the USC Price School of Public Policy, a USC Student-Athlete Tutor, and later as a member of the USC Young Alumni Council, New York Regional Advisory Committee, USC Price Ambassador Program, USC Price Professional Mentorship Program, USC Trojan Women’s Network, USC Marshall New York Regional Board and the USC Alumni Leadership Planning Committee. Stepping into the role of inaugural co-chair of the New York Trojan Network felt like an exciting and meaningful continuation of my journey.

USC is truly special, but what makes it extraordinary is its people — the students, alumni, faculty and broader community. The pride, passion, dedication and loyalty of Trojans are unmatched. I’m excited to take on this leadership role because USC has had and continues to profoundly impact my life. Serving as co-chair allows me to give back to the institution that has given me so much and do my part to ensure that the legacy of the Trojan spirit continues throughout the New York Metro area. Fight On!
