EXPERTISE
I AM A SISTER
I am a sister of Tri Sigma Sorority in the Epsilon Sigma Chapter at Virginia Commonwealth University where I did volunteer work, planned events and maintained school work and my gpa in order to stay in the organization. This organization was a great networking resource for me.
I AM A VOLUNTEER
I have been volunteering in my community through my church for years. I have volunteered at soup kitchens, built homes for the less fortunate at Tri Cities Workcamp in Petersburg, Virginia as well as taught vacation bible. I have participated in walks and fundraisers through Tri Sigma for our Philanthropy- March of Dimes. I have also been a mentor at Carver Elementary school meeting once a week to help a child read and learn.
I AM AN ADVOCATE
I am a huge advocate for mental health and hope to, through my work in Public Relations, raise awareness on this issue. Through music and public relations I think I can work to raise awareness on mental health and help people to not feel alone on the topic and give them a platform in which to speak on.
