Bio: Hello family, my name is Lauren Bergholz and I am the 2012-2013 Residence Hall Association President. I am currently a 4th year student pursuing a major in Social Work and a minor in Family Health and Human Services. I am from a small farming town just east of Madison called Marshall, Wisconsin. I am extremely close with my immediate family which consists of my mom, Debra, dad, Brent and little brother (who is actually 19 and not so little any more) Parker. We also have 3 cats, Charlie, Dude, and Ed. Along with a turtle named Donnie and our pride and joy 4 year old collie, named Toby. It’s a busy household in the Bergholz family. I love being involved on campus and this year I am lucky enough to not only be involved in RHA but also Homecoming Steering Committee along with I work for the Tutt/Knilans Front Desk. I love in Fox Meadows Apartments ran through Reslife and LOVE to bake in our fully equipped kitchen. I also love to read, listen to music and talk to my friends. My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice and currently I am obsessed with any song by The Wanted (haven’t heard of them, look them up;P). Well that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to me, I am an open book. Feel free to drop by my office hours or even just stop me on the sidewalk for a chat! Have a great year everyone! See you on Wednesdays!

Bio: My name is Rob Emmett and I am your 2012-2013 RHA Vice-President. I am the budget officer and I serve as the president’s back-up should she ever be absent. I am currently a sophomore studying Entrepreneurship, and I live in Tutt Hall. I am from the Village of Hales Corners, a suburb located 10 miles southwest of Downtown Milwaukee. My family is made up of my sister, who will be graduating from Carroll University this year, my father and my mother. I absolutely love spending time with my family, immediate and extended, and my close friends. I am extremely enthused to serve the outstanding residents in the residence halls here on campus this year. We have an excellent residence life program at UW-Whitewater, and I intend, with your help, to make it even better. When I’m not busy with RHA, you can find me at work, running my own auto detailing business; Extreme Car Makeover. I truly love what I do and I am looking forward to a lifetime of entrepreneurship. I’m always willing to engage in conversation; your ideas are what keep RHA moving forward. Let’s make this the best year yet!
