Volunteer Work

Gave support to my community by tirelessly working food drives, writing letters to veterans, and giving support to kids within my community. I've collaborated in community events to spread awareness about community concerns such as mental wellbeing of teenagers and literacy among young children. As well as for the past 3 years I have volunteered at my church for Vacation Bible School. During that work, I organized group lessons and took on leadership opportunities to support students.
