Elyse Barnes
Elyse was born in Annapolis, Maryland and raised in Eugene, Oregon. She is a second-year Master of Public Administration candidate with an emphasis in Finance. Her most notable experience in the Marriott School has been her involvement with Grantwell, a consulting program that provides students with experience in philanthropic grant making, grant allocation, and grant strategy projects. As a student project officer, Elyse worked on consulting teams for the Tyler Robinson Foundation and the Walmart Foundation. She now sits on the Grantwell Board as the student board member over alumni outreach. She is appreciative of her association with the Marriott School of Management because its reputation has a wide-reaching influence for good. Elyse is also the President of the Graduate Student Society, an organization which seeks to enrich the graduate experience by providing opportunities for intellectual growth, professional development, spirituality, and social interaction. Developing relationships across graduate disciplines from every corner of campus has broadened her understanding of and appreciation for the work BYU graduate students are doing and their impact in their communities and in the world.
