My name is Ryan Cherry, I am a Fresno State student in my third year at the Craig School of Business.

I am an active member of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity. I am running for the position of vice president of external affairs because I felt that it would best fit my talents and strengths.

These being the ability to listen to student needs and act on them, the ability to see an issue and solve it quickly and my ability to work well with others. I think of myself as a man of action, a problem solver.

Each day when I walk to class I pay attention to my surroundings, I look for things to fix, and I acknowledge what is good.

Issues I see currently on all campuses across the state fit right into the campaign points of my slate.

These are campus safety, mental health awareness, sexual assault prevention, improvements to campus parking and healthier food options for our students.

As the Fresno State VPEX I plan to work closely with other schools to best solve the problems we face today.

My pride for Fresno State and its betterment are unmatched.
