Rickie Wattanakasaem - Hello Everyone, my name is Rickie Wattanakasaem and I am the National Communications Coordinator for the Residential Housing Association. I am a second year Collaborative Health & Human Services major at CSUMB. I look forward to helping the growth of our campus and getting to represent our campus at Regional and National Conferences.

Alex Medina - I joined RHA because I have a passion for creating community and leadership development experiences. My last year as the President of the North Quad Area Council pushed me to develop myself as a leader in so many ways and realize how important RHA and their mission is. Right now I am expecting to graduate in fall of 2018 with a business degree with a concentration in accounting. My goal is to get my CPA license as soon as possible after graduation, and possibly one day open my own business. This year I am excited to be a part of RHA and work with the other officers to do our best to make our traditional programs even better, and help mentor those in area councils to do the same.
