"Through Diller, I gained the confidence to speak my mind. I learned to create a plan and make it happen, and discovered my strengths as a leader. Diller taught me how to work on a team and make meaningful connections with others. Best of all, I had an amazing experience with an amazing group of people! Now, in university, I use the skills I've gained through Diller all the time."
