Gaby Mier '07
Lives in: Austin, Texas
Major: History / French
Occupation: Marketing Strategist / Architecture
Favorite BC Memory: Marshmallow shooters all over Lower Campus with my seven amazing roommates.
Why did you get involved in your local chapter?: BC changed my life. My experiences there forced me to become my own person, introduced me to the best people, and opened my eyes to what's possible.
What are your local favorites in your city?: I have visited 34 countries so far!
Fun Fact: Running along Town Lake is my favorite thing to do in Austin. Sometimes I run to get tacos, mimosas, train for races, or to the good views to just decompress. There's no better place in the city than being by the water.

Major: Marketing
Occupation: 5th Grade Teacher
Favorite BC Memory: BC Notre Dame road trip. Terrible, painful loss (and they filmed Rudy with us in the stands) but the 40 foot RV with 13 senior girls and 3 sophomore boys, bar nights in Chicago and South Bend, and piles of memories made the score not matter a bit! (and David Gordon's kick to win the very next year helped too)
Why did you get involved in your local chapter?: I've been involved on and off, and now that my oldest baby is at the Height herself, it's time to get back engaged with my ATX Eagles!
What are your local favorites in your city?: ACL all 3 days weekend 1 is what I love best about Austin! Maudies, Chuys, Style Switch, Via 313, Homeslice, Little Deli.... so many foods and drink!
Fun Fact: I got into Notre Dame and it was my Mom's pick for me, but they didn't give us a dime (single Mama sending kiddo to college) AND the admissions guy said "Our girls tend to do better in A&S" when I said I wanted the business school. Thus started my dislike of ND, and it continues today!
