Affiliations

Community Involvement:

  • I was brought up in the Lutheran Memorial Church of Chicago and have been fortunate enough to come from a family of community leaders who have allowed me the opportunity to volunteer my time at the church including childcare for parents attending service, preparing dinner on Wednesdays open to all families and children in the neighborhood at no cost, and once a month providing meals for the homeless and less fortunate in the city through the Night Ministry of Chicago.
  • CMAA (Chinese Mutual Aid association) and the Hoang Phuc Lion Dance association put on an annual Lunar New Year Parade in Argyle (Chicago) that I have been fortunate enough to be a part of as I was involved in several cultural clubs during my time in school. The event is always a rewarding experience as we put on culturally relevant performances to earn donations for the CMAA while also providing a spectacular display for everyone attending the festivities.
