Summary

I’m a passionate organizer, student, and emerging leader committed to civic engagement and equity-driven advocacy. Through my work with SEIU 775, I’ve listened to and amplified the voices of long-term care workers, training members to speak up at the Capitol, and helping launch campaigns that drive real workplace improvements. Currently studying Healthcare Management and Communication, I bring strong facilitation, empathy, and community-building skills. As a Student Ambassador Fellow, I’m excited to empower students by organizing inclusive events, representing diverse perspectives, and strengthening peer-led initiatives that foster social change.
