The Executive Board (E-Board for short) consists of seven student leaders that help brainstorm and plan ideas to keep the Catholic Student Union thriving with fun! 

President: Delsie Borgen

Hello! My name is Delsie Borgen and I am a senior majoring in criminology and minoring in sociology. I’m from Tampa Florida and I love the Tampa Bay Lightning. GO BOLTS! One of my biggest goals in life is to be a contestant on The Price is Right. I grew up in a military family (Go Army beat Navy) and spent most of my life moving up and down the east coast. I began my faith journey once I started high school where I participated in the Life Teen program at my church. Going into college I knew I wanted to continue to grow in my faith. Once I transferred to Florida State University after my freshman year of college I found my home at the Catholic Student Union. Through the Church and this community I have been able to grow in my faith life in ways I never imagined I would. I was given opportunities to serve God’s people by helping lead the women’s spring break mission trip, being able to serve this past summer at Covecrest with Life Teen, and now as an E-board member for this school year. I’m honored to serve the community this year and can’t wait to see what the Lord has in store for everyone.
 

Vice President: Jae Williams

¡Saludos! My name is Jae Williams and I am serving as the Vice President of The Catholic Student Union this academic year! I am a Junior at Florida State studying Criminology and Business. I am a Tallahassee native and am very much a product of the Catholic community here. Growing up in Catholic school, I was always aware of The Catholic Student Union and the impact that Our Lord had made through its ministry. I never could have imagined the impact the He would have on me through this ministry and the community that so lovingly embraces Him. I have come to know my Creator on a more intimate level through this community and cannot wait to see what He has in store for us this year at the Co-Cathedral and on the campuses of Florida State, Florida A&M and Tallahassee Community College!  

“His calling is a declaration of love. Your response is a commitment, friendship, and love manifested in the gift of your own life as a definitive following and as a permanent sharing in His mission and in His consecrations.”    -St. John Paul II

 

Secretary: Ashley Douglas

Hello! My name is Ashley Douglas, and I’m a junior at Florida State University studying psychology and philosophy. In my free time, I love to rewatch my favorite movies, read, and spend way too much money on stationery.
I grew up right here in Tallahassee where I experienced a radical “reversion” to Catholicism in my senior year of high school. Coming into college, I desperately desired a strong Catholic community, and the Lord has blessed me abundantly! At the Catholic Student Union, I have encountered Jesus in innumerable ways and the cry of my heart is to give back to the community that has formed and fostered my faith during my time at FSU. What can be found here is so sweet and all too unique. Everyone on this campus deserves to know what we know-- that we are completely known and completely loved by Jesus!

Treasurer: Chris Lindeman

Hello! My name is Christopher Lindeman and I am a fourth-year English Education student here at FSU. Born and raised in central Florida, I grew up accustomed to hurricanes, pub subs, and humidity. Needless to say, Tallahassee winters are NOT cold enough for me; catch me in a hoodie pretty often. Some things I enjoy are movies, volleyball, and a good book in fall weather. I can quote almost every word spoken by Fr. Mike Schmitz and every Disney Movie; you should check them out. I have two incredible parents and 4 brothers. When I first got to FSU, getting involved in a Catholic community was not a priority, but God the Father’s relentless pursuit of my heart thankfully led me in the direction of some men in gray and the St. Thomas More social hall and I haven’t looked back since. I have become part of a family. A family living out this wonderful adventure with Christ. What a gift. You are loved and you’ll always have a home at CSU. I am beyond excited and blessed with the opportunity to serve you all this year and spread the love and joy of Jesus Christ across Tallahassee!

Historian: Michaela Goldstein

Hey friends! My name is Michaela Goldstein and I am from the beautiful city of St. Petersburg, FL. I am a senior studying Family and Child Sciences with minors in Education and Psychology. Some fun facts about me, I LOVE my car. Her name is Daisy and she is a beautiful white punch buggy. I am a huge fan of the Salesians of St. Don Bosco. I have 4 poodles, which is 4 more than the average household. I enjoy going on photography adventures around Tally, so come and shoot with me! Since I study Family and Child Sciences, I am thinking about working in Geriatrics- so see ya in 60 years! Growing up, my faith in Jesus slowly began to grow. I participated in Mission Trips and was involved in youth group. But, my real journey began at THE Florida State University in the Fall of 2016 and I immediately fell in love with all things FSU and CSU.  At the beginning of my freshman year, as I searched to find myself within a sea of Garnet and Gold, I wandered into the social hall at St. Thomas More for my first Spirit Night. There, I encountered Jesus in the community and I quickly found my home here. I was welcomed with open arms and open hearts. They showed me the path that Jesus walked and encouraged me to walk beside them. I had no idea what to expect …. and dang Jesus rocked my world real quick. I began to form a prayer life and a relationship with the Father. It has been such a blessing and a joy to run towards Christ with some of my closest friends by my side. This year, I am so incredibly excited to serve as your Historian! I want to tell His story through your story. Yes, I mean you- so come hang out and get involved! The Church at the top of the hill has become my home and I hope that it will be a home for so many to come. Anyway, catch me at Spirit Night, I’m the one behind the camera! (Click!)

Pastoral Council Representative: Tyler Currier

Hi my name is Tyler Currier. I am a senior studying Athletic Training. I have grown up in probably the greatest city in Florida and the very home of Publix, that’s right Winter Haven, FL the one and only 863! I love playing and watching sports, anything outdoors, cooking, and experiencing new things. Originally from New Hampshire I love everything Boston. The Patriots (Tom Brady is the GOAT no questions), Go Sox, Mark Wahlberg, corned beef, and actually seeing leaves changing color. However….. GO BOLTS! I’m very excited to give back to this community this year serving on the Executive Board. I know a little about a lot of things and a lot about a little things. If there’s one thing I know the most, it is that Jesus is present here in Tallahassee and I have experienced him using the Catholic Student Union to bring myself and others to Christ. I have found a home and a family here and I hope you have and will find the same. You are always welcome here, if you ever have the chance please say hello!
