Oh, and he really wants to play Mario Kart in Cox Computing Center before he graduates. He welcomes any challengers and advises them to prepare to lose. He joined Dooley Noted as a sophomore and would like to thank his past self for making such an awesome decision because being a part of Dooley Noted has been one of his greatest sources of joy in college. 💙🎼

DOOLEY NOTED EXEC INTRO (3/5)
Anika is a rising sophomore majoring in Neuroscience and currently on the pre-med track. She has always loved music and singing and is excited to step into her new role as assistant MD. Ani joined DN last year and absolutely loved the experience, the environment, and of course, getting to sing with such incredible and talented people! Outside of DN, Ani is part of the pre-medical frat and loves to spend time outside, work out, do any craft you could think of, and explore Atlanta. She can’t wait to see and hear all the beautiful people that audition this fall! 🫶🏻🎵
DOOLEY NOTED EXEC INTROS (2/5)
Our second exec intro is highlighting our treasurer, Max Pasternak. Max is a rising senior in the Goizueta Business School majoring in Finance. He joined DN in Spring of 2022 and has enjoyed the many great experiences that previous leadership organized, including getting to be on Hulu’s “Tell Me Lies,” going to ICCAs, and recording EPs. He was this year’s Photo Tag loser and will most likely keep the title next year, as he spends way too much time outside on campus. Although he enjoys working in banking and has had a lot of fun at Citi this summer, he is far more excited to be doing Dooley Noted’s taxes. 😉 Be sure to audition for Dooley Noted this fall! We can’t wait to meet you! 🎤💙

We have been truly blessed by the impact these seniors have put on this group. We are so thankful for their talents, generosity, and effort. Without them, this group would not be the same and we will greatly miss them.
Dani served as president of Dooley Noted for two years, leading with grace and dedication. Thank you for shaping this group to be the best it can be, Dani. Nick has been with the group all four years of his college experience, serving as music director for two years. Thank you for your guidance and humor, Nick. Hannah served as assistant music director this year and arranged many of our beautiful arrangements for ICCA/ concerts. Thank you for your passion and creativity, Hannah. Zaria served as treasurer of Dooley Noted, ensuring we could go to ICCA this year and supporting our group in more ways than we could imagine. Thank you for your compassion and vibrance, Zaria. Devin has been an integral member of the group, choreographing our ICCA setlist this year and singing many incredible solos. Thank you for your positivity and radiance, Devin. Emily joined the group this year as Newb and brought such liveliness to rehearsals/ performances with her personality. Thank you for your wittiness and lively demeanor, Emily. And finally, Gabe has ignited passion and musicality within our group during ICCA rehearsals and beyond this year after studying abroad in Morocco first semester. Thank you for your swagger and kind heart, Gabe.
Clearly, there are not enough “thank you’s” to be said in one short post. The legacy these creative, talented, and passionate individuals will remain imprinted on our group forever. While we are sad to see you all go, we know you all will do spectacular things. From nurses to onstage musicians, the versatility of our seniors does not go unnoticed.
One last time, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
