Boren’s goal is to foster a classroom environment where students feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and experiences.

In her own words: “The students come with fresh perspectives and enthusiasm. They are at the beginning of their academic journey and are eager to learn and explore leadership ideas. Leadership education helps students develop essential life skills such as communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and time management. These skills are not only valuable in leadership roles but also in everyday life.”
