A business administration and agribusiness double major from Birmingham, Alabama, Paige emerged as a standout student leader, shaping campus life through Student Senate and founding Unity Fest to strengthen ties between IC and Jacksonville. 

Her journey was fueled by scholarships and mentorship that extended well beyond academics, along with donor-funded experiential learning that ensured every student has the chance to gain real-world experience. Paige completed multiple internships with State Farm, where she built confidence in corporate settings and learned to navigate professional networks with ease. Those experiences led directly to her postgraduation role as a corporate leadership trainee with State Farm in Dallas. 

“Without those experiences, I wouldn’t have had the confidence to step into boardrooms, network with industry leaders or see myself thriving in corporate America,” Paige says. 

Donor generosity opened these doors for Paige, empowering her to lead on campus, connect communities and launch a promising career. Your support makes stories like hers possible, turning student potential into impact.
