President

Charlie Woekel

Hi! I'm Charlie Woekel, and I am the President of ASCC. I am a third-year political science major with an option in law and politics, and a minor in psychology. I am from Corvallis, Oregon and I chose Bend to escape the large campus feel of Corvallis and find my own way of life. This is my second year serving on ASCC, and I couldn't be more excited! I joined Student Government to improve this campus and community I have fallen in love with at OSU-Cascades, while gaining valuable experience for my life ahead. My hobbies include all things football and hockey, playing volleyball, snowboarding, playing guitar, and collecting LEGO. I am very excited for the school year and the possibilities to come.

Vice President

Nayeli Monjaras-Juarez

Hi! My name is Nayeli Monjaras-Juarez, and I serve as the Vice President. I’m a second-year student double-majoring in Political Science and Early Childhood Development. I’m originally from Wendell, a small town in Southern Idaho, and coming to OSU-Cascades has been an exciting new chapter for me. I was drawn to Cascades because of its strong HDFS program and the supportive, close-knit environment between professors and students. The smaller class sizes make it easy to build meaningful connections, and I love being part of a community that encourages exploring new ideas and the outdoors. I joined ASCC to help strengthen student advocacy and to ensure that the incidental fee is clearly understood across campus. I’m passionate about supporting others, uplifting student voices, and contributing to a campus environment where everyone feels informed and empowered.          

Director of Legislative Affairs

Reese Kunitzer

Hello! My name is Reese Kunitzer, and I am the Director of Legislative Affairs. I am a fourth year in Business Administration. I was born in California and moved to Bend at 10 years old. I decided to go to OSU-Cascades because it's close to home, and I love it here in Bend. My hobbies include writing, drawing, crocheting, and reading. I joined ASCC because I want to shape how student government grows and changes as time goes on.

Director of Sustainable Initiatives

Alisia Sisneros

Hi, my name is Alisia Sisneros! I serve as the director of sustainable initiatives for ASCC. This is my third year in my position, and I am so excited to be back in this role. I am currently a junior majoring in Sustainability and Business. I love to skate, mountain bike, snowboard, and bake in my free time. Many of my outdoor sports have spurred me to be involved in protecting our planet but my interest in saving our planet began way before then going all the way back to the 7-year-old Alisia who was so upset learning about climate change for the first time. I wished for people to care as much as I did and thankfully now that is somewhat a reality. I love that I am able to advocate for and serve our students and our planet cohesively and think that everyone should feel they have their voice heard regardless of differences and hope to continue making that possible for our students in the upcoming year! 

Vice Chair of Student Fee Committee

Matthew Blumhardt

Hi, I'm Matthew Bulmhardt. I am a third-year psychology major and hope to attend medical school after graduation. While I love Southern Oregon, where I have lived for years, I chose OSU-Cascades because of its tight-knit community and the numerous outdoor opportunities in Bend. While in Student Government, I plan on working with my peers to ensure that student resources are spent in a manner that fosters an accessible and equitable community at OSU-Cascades.
