About

Strong advocate for sustainability, justice, diversity, equity, and inclusivity. As a first-generation immigrant and first-generation student, I have often felt out of place. This has allowed me to gain unique perspectives and become a highly driven individual. I understand what it is like to be part of an underserved community, so I strive to provide help and empathy when the opportunity arises. Likewise, I am always seeking new knowledge, skills, and conversations! Please feel free to contact me!
