Jessie Gallagher is a friendly, goal-oriented freshman at the University at Albany. She attended William Floyd High School in Long Island, NY, where she was fortunate enough to participate in numerous clubs, sports and academic programs. Many of the clubs, like FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America), were volunteer and community service based. She was very dedicated and passionate about volunteering in her community at home, and continues to be in college. Being a volunteer throughout her high school career was the stepping stone that led her to step up in her new community at Albany. Service has always been a huge part of her life and she is determined to keep it that way by being a member of Leaders in Service here at the University of Albany.
