Summary

Above all else, I am committed to my community. Whether it is educating the youth, volunteering on a hotline to speak to my neighbours that are struggling, or making sure my crew at Mcdonald's got through St. Patrick's Day in a college town, I am all about the people around me. Fostering inclusive environments as pockets of joy and hope is my greatest passion and I look forward to taking pride in another way in which I can serve my community.
