THON 2012 Overall ❖

Overall Chairperson THON 2012

Name: Elaine Tanella

Year: Senior

Major: Bioengineering

Fun fact about Elaine: I can cook several varieties of grilled cheese.

Favorite THON memory: Running, darting, and laughing - that pretty much sums it up. My favorite THON memory thus far is getting into a water gun fight with one of my organization's THON children. It may seem silly to say, but this was one of the most inspiring moments of my life. The fact that he still smiles and runs around despite all of the things going on in his life at the moment amazes me still to this day. All of the hardships that he and his family have gone through had not affected his spirit in the least bit. His playful spirit was contagious and affected everyone around him.
