Bio
Emily Banashefski
I worked with Taonga on a group project in our Business 100 course where we created a service called Aspiring Athletes. He served as our Marketing Manager and he displayed great work ethic throughout the entirety of our project. Despite being in another country, time zone, and while training for cross country, he found the time to meet with our group weekly and contribute greats ideas for our project. He holds a high sense of confidence in himself and this was evident in our group presentations. I really enjoyed working with him as he is intelligent and creative. Taonga even created and designed our website that we used for our service and it looked fantastic. I have full confidence that he will be successful with whatever career path he takes.

As a roommate and teammate of Taonga's, I have witnessed first hand his determination and drive for success. Whether he is on the track or in the classroom, Taonga always does the little things to get better day in and day out. No matter how much success he sees, he is always humble and makes you feel like you are far superior with daily encouragement. He is the most organized person I know along with the kindest. He will be an asset wherever he goes, as he is a capable leader and a fine example for those around him to key off of.
