Aquinas College

Sophomore Ondreana "Ona" Mather continues her career with the Aquinas Dance Team while pursuing a degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Developmental Psychology. Mather has continued to build upon an already impressive résumé, earning All-Conference honors, Dancer of the Year and Newcomer of the Year recognition during her collegiate career.

Before arriving at Aquinas, Mather earned numerous dance scholarships and invitations while competing in varsity cheer, varsity pom, cross country, track and studio dance. Her diverse athletic background and enthusiasm have made her a valuable member of the Saints program.

Ona chose Aquinas because of the opportunity to continue dancing while preparing for her future as an educator. Outside of dance, she enjoys scrapbooking, traveling and surfing, has a bearded dragon named Mushu, and is an "Irish twin," born just 11 months apart from her sister.
