Meet The Team
Evelyn Cliff
Co-President
Evelyn Cliff is a sophomore Electrical Engineering major from Sacramento. She is hoping to attend law school after finishing her Masters at USC to pursue Intellectual Property Law. She's been involved with PAWS since her freshman year and also served as the LA Kitten Rescue Chair. She misses her three dogs at home--a black lab pitbull named Moxie, a chiweenie named Copper, and a mysterious mix (she looks like Scrat from Ice Age) named Stella.
Emily Hadley
Secretary
My name is Emily Hadley, I am a junior majoring in Film & TV Production and I am the secretary for PAWS. In the past I have loved volunteering at the Westside German Shepherd Rescue because at heart I am a true dog person, though I love all animals.
Rhea Koparde
Social Media Chair
My name is Rhea Koparde and I am majoring in computational neuroscience and minoring in computer science. I am this years social media chair. I love all animals but my favorite animal is a dog. I even have two of my own and I treat them like they are my children!
Christina Dal Pozzo
Vice-President
Chrissy Dal Pozzo serves as vice-president of PAWS. She grew up in Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and Canada, but LA is her favorite because of the warm weather and great food! She LOVES all animals; she has had pet pigs, goats, rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, fish, and birds. Of all the pets she has had, she like dogs, bunnies, and pigs the best!
Hana Huang
Tresurer/Fundraising Chair
Hi, my name is Hana Huang. I am a sophomore majoring in International Relations and Global Business and minoring in Cinematic Arts. I love all animals, but huskies are my favorite and I hope to adopt one in the future. I look forward to meeting all the new members and share our love of animals.
Lee Fisher
Kitten Rescue Chair
My name is Lee Fisher and I'm a freshman here at USC studying Political Science. I'm originally from the Bay Area, which is where I first started volunteering for animal shelters like Pets in Need. On campus, I'm a member of USC College Democrats, and of course PAWS! I am the Kitten Rescue Chair for PAWS, which means I coordinate all the events with Kitten Rescue, a non-profit organization that finds homes for kittens and cats. Even though I will spend most of my time with Kitten Rescue this semester, I love volunteering with all sorts of organizations and helping all kinds of animals.
Jarod Majeika
LA Rabbit Chair
Jarod Majeika serves as the LA Rabbit Foundation Chair with PAWS. He is from Rhode Island and is majoring in Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Studies with a minor in Screenwriting, and hopes to pursue environmental health policy in the future. While rabbits are obviously part of his work in PAWS, he loves his (very) large cat, Pouncer, and President Evelyn Cliff's three wonderful dogs. He would love to steal them one day.
