As our final graduating DifferenceMaker co-op this semester, we’re excited to recognize and celebrate for the impact she has made on our community.
Since joining the team last fall, Saryna has been a dependable and positive presence within DifferenceMaker. She was always willing to step in and help wherever needed, brought people together, and remained calm and collected during busy events and stressful moments. Her ability to support both her coworkers and student teams made her an important part of the environment and culture within the space.
As a Business Administration major concentrating in International Business in the Manning School of Business, Saryna balanced professionalism, kindness, and teamwork in everything she did. She was a great team player who consistently showed up ready to help, collaborate, and support those around her.
After graduation, Saryna is looking forward to sculpting her own silhouette as she begins an exciting new chapter and continues pursuing her goals and passions.
Through her hard work, positive attitude, and dedication to the community, Saryna made a lasting impact on DifferenceMaker and the students she worked with throughout the year.
Saryna, thank you for all of your contributions, kindness, and support throughout your time with us. We are so excited to see what’s next for you and wish you all the best in this next chapter of your life! 💙

It’s a bittersweet moment as we say goodbye to one of our DifferenceMaker co-ops, .
Hanna joined DifferenceMaker last spring and quickly became a positive presence within the community. She brought kindness, creativity, and enthusiasm to everything she was involved in and was always supportive, upbeat, and excited to contribute.
Last spring, Hanna participated in the $50,000 Idea Challenge, where she presented her venture, SoundWaves, a platform designed to make live music experiences more connected, accessible, and engaging for fans, artists, and venues. During the competition, SoundWaves earned the Fan Favorite Award, highlighting the excitement and support surrounding her idea. She is now preparing for an exciting next chapter as she continues expanding SoundWaves.
As a Mechanical Engineering student in the Francis College of Engineering, she has balanced interests in engineering, music, and business while continuing to grow SoundWaves. After graduation, she plans to pursue opportunities across those fields while also making time to travel and explore new experiences.
Hanna, thank you for your positivity and for being part of the DifferenceMaker team. We wish you all the best in this next chapter and can’t wait to see where your journey takes you! 💙
