I completed 200+ hours of volunteer service which included tutoring a low-income middle schooler, distributing food at the Boys & Girls Club of the Peninsula, planting native habitat with an environmental restoration project, and supporting organizations including My Digital TAT2, Rise Together Education, The Celiac Community Foundation of Northern California, San Carlos Education Foundation, and UCSF Children’s Hospital. Volunteering allowed me opportunities to make connections, build community, and gain skills.
