The on the job training prepared me to return to college as a non-traditional student and make the most of my undergraduate experience by excelling academically, and participating in every club and organization that peeked my curiosity. Involvement fed my newly discovered insatiable need to serve, learn and evolve. My drive and commitment are contagious and my optimism nurtures and inspires others to seek their passions.
I love engaging with other "learners," and have a knack for developing solutions to perceived issues. After participating in the Washington Center Intern program in Washington, D.C..
