Candidate Bio
My name is Brin DeVries. I am a sophomore in the Honors College majoring
in Public and Nonprofit Administration with a minor in Human Rights. I
am a commuter student who lives in Kentwood. My career goal is to become
a Disability Advocate, helping to bring change to the world for people
like me. I was born with cerebral palsy and have faced many barriers to
everyday life. I want to use these experiences to increase access,
inclusion, and accessibility while reshaping systems, environments, and
societal structures. I have served on the Student Senate for the last
year and enjoyed the opportunity to hear and address student concerns.
