The Student Government Association (SGA) is the campus organization that represents the interests of all Wake Tech students and serves as a liaison between the faculty and administration and students.
All Wake Tech students are cordially invited – and strongly encouraged – to get involved with the SGA. Each curriculum student is required to pay the Student Activities Fee and is, therefore, a member of the SGA and governed by its rules and regulations.
"The Wake Tech Student Government Association is dedicated to building a vibrant, inclusive and united campus community where every student feels valued, supported and heard. Our focus is empowering all students by creating opportunities for personal growth, networking, student connection and success throughout their college journey. Through these efforts, we aim to enhance the overall college experience for everyone at Wake Tech."
SGA General Business Meetings are held at 2 p.m. on the fourth Wednesday of the month (August through November and January through April), unless a holiday falls on that day. All SGA senators and Executive Board members attend the meetings, as do club representatives and students. It's a great place to let your voice be heard.
Meetings are conducted online via Microsoft Teams, and students also can attend at either of these locations:
Southern Wake Campus
Montague Hall (Building M), Room 343
Scott Northern Wake Campus
Building D, Room 401
Hi, Wake Tech Eagles. My name is Silas Johnson. I was born and raised in North Carolina. I am currently studying for my Associate in Arts and hoping to pursue a career in project management.
My goal as SGA President is to serve the students of Wake Tech by creating a fun and vibrant community that fosters bright ideas and gives students the college experience they're looking for.
Hello, Wake Tech. My name is Sydney Davis. I am the SGA Vice President for the 2024-25 school year.
I was born and raised in Raleigh. This will be my third year at Wake Tech. I am double majoring in Associate in Science and Associate in Engineering. I plan on transferring to N.C. State to get my bachelor's degree in biology.
I will work hard in Student Government as this year's Vice President. I will work to ensure that all Wake Tech students have good experiences while studying here. I'm excited to connect with the general student body and serve my school. I hope to be able to speak on the behalf of all Wake Tech students.
Originally from Russia, I moved to the U.S. in 2018. After completing high school in America, I'm now studying engineering at Wake Tech. I plan to pursue a degree in computer science in the future. Alongside my studies, I work as a realtor, assisting Wake Tech students in finding suitable housing.
My journey in higher education has had its challenges, but I remain committed to achieving my academic and professional goals.
Hello, everyone! My name is Daniela Rebong, and I am your SGA Treasurer this 2024-25 school year.
I joined the Wake Tech community in Summer 2023 as an international student. I was born in the Philippines, and I went to high school in Louisiana before moving to North Carolina. Now, I am pursuing an Associate in Applied Science degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology at Wake Tech. In the future, I plan to obtain my bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, then sit for my Professional Engineering license exam. That now feels more achievable, thanks to the opportunities and experiences that Wake Tech has given me.
Wake Tech is my first step to achieving my goals, and I am very grateful to be a part of this community. I joined the SGA with the goal of making sure that our events are accessible to every type of student: traditional, untraditional, online or in-person. As treasurer, I promise to do my best to work with all student organizations on campus to provide an invigorating experience for our students.
Hi, Eagles! I'm Milena Alvarez, and I will be serving as the Public Information Officer this 2024-25 academic year.
I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, but moved to Raleigh about five years ago. My Wake Tech journey started in Fall 2022, pursuing an Associate in Applied Science degree in Architectural Technology. Once I complete my degree, I plan on transferring to North Carolina State University to get my bachelor's degree in Environmental Design in Architecture.
Apart from serving in this new role, I am also a part of the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society and the International Friends Club. In my free time, I like to paint, watch movies and hang out with friends.
This school year, I plan on making changes for the better. There are a lot of ideas my teammates and I have, and we not only want to see Wake Tech grow but also have better communication with our students, who are eager to be heard. Thank you for the opportunity, and I can't wait to hear your voices!
"SGA is the most rewarding experience I've ever had. It's something that's worth being part of."
