Sophie MacFawn
My name is Sophie MacFawn, and I will be graduating from the University of Tennessee in May 2026 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and a minor in Human Development and Family Science. I am deeply passionate about supporting others and aspire to pursue a career in counseling. During my time in the Epsilon Lambda chapter, I have served as an Owl Pal, Homecoming Chair, Mental Health Coordinator, and Chapter President. In addition, I am actively involved with Tennessee’s Active Minds Club, where I serve on the executive board, and I recently had the privilege of being a Small Group Facilitator for the 2026 Tennessee Future Greek Leader Retreat. Outside of my academic and leadership commitments, I enjoy baking, traveling, and exploring various arts and crafts. This love for reativity has led me to start my own needlepoint canvas painting business!
