Projects

Oldies But Techies, Founder and President, 01/01/20, 12/31/21, Started this nonprofit to teach elderly how to use technology to keep in touch with their families. Covid restrictions have limited seniors' ability to contact anyone outside of the senior home. OBT helps address this challenge. From starting this non-profit on my own, I learned leadership skills as well as many social skills as I advocated and spread the word about my organization. It gave me skills I could use in retail as I now understand how to sell something to someone, like I had to do to get people to join my non-profit. I also had to plan fundraisers and meetings with everyone which showed me how to handle responsibilities.
