Kaylin Labenz is a Kansas native, studying Exercise Science at Wichita State University in Kansas. Her current goal is to become a fitness trainer; however her father Anthony’s work with the USDA has inspired her to also consider fields that deal with the conservation of Earth’s resources. Kaylin is greatly fueled by her parents’ gentle support. “They will be proud of what I do as long as I am doing my best, which really pushes me to succeed.”

Kaylin values her involvement with her campus’ Catholic Newman Center, which has offered further support through all of her decisions, and helped her faith to grow. Kaylin is a strong believer in participation in community service, and making her community a better place. In her free time she loves to knit.
