International President Kate Halfon (Eta Delta-CSU East Bay)
It is incredibly inspiring to learn about some fellow Alpha Phis who have taken bold steps to launch and lead their own successful businesses. I’ve been on that journey myself. After working independently for several years, I officially incorporated and launched my property management company in June 2021. It was the best decision I’ve made for my career. There have certainly been highs and lows along the way, but through it all, my Alpha Phi sisters have been a source of strength and encouragement. The leadership experience I gained as a chapter officer and volunteer has been instrumental in shaping my business, teaching me how to negotiate with confidence, navigate difficult conversations and manage teams with empathy and effectiveness.
remains a constant as we evolve and change. As we embrace the spirit of summer, it’s the perfect time to reflect on those joyful college days filled with sisterhood and sunshine. If you’re reading this, you’re a dues-paying member, so thank you. Your support helps sustain the connections, programming and opportunities that make our sisterhood so meaningful. Let’s continue to encourage one another to stay engaged, invest in Alpha Phi and ensure it remains a strong, lifelong network for all who come after us.
Loyally,
Kate Halfon (Eta Delta-CSU East Bay) International President
