My name is Massa (she/her) and I’m so very excited to be at Fortune Lake for my second year! I’m 20 years old, and will be a sophomore at MATC for Human Resources and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. I’m from Liberia, but was raised in Eagle River Wisconsin. This year I’m most excited to be around new and old friends, strengthen my faith, and bring my gifts from God into this new position!"
