Volunteering & Community
Supporting youth development and community engagement
Big Brothers Big Sisters of America
Volunteer · Sep 2025 - Present · 4 mos
Children
Preparing to begin my journey as a volunteer mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters, an organization that empowers youth through one-on-one guidance and long-term relationships. This opportunity deeply aligns with my values of community, growth, and mentorship—particularly in supporting kids who come from single-parent households, foster care, or challenging environments.
Through this program, I hope to:
- Listen, encourage, and help build confidence and trust in a young person's life
- Support personal development and goal-setting in a positive, consistent way
- Extend the mentorship foundation built through volunteer work with Boys & Girls Club and local elementary schools
I'm genuinely excited to begin this new chapter and give back to a cause that means a great deal to me.
Boys and Girls Club Washington County Chapter
Volunteer · May 2013 - Jul 2013 · 3 mos · Children
Supported staff and children during summer programming by helping organize activity areas, portion and distribute snacks, and assist with outdoor games and supervision. Volunteered for a short-term engagement focused on creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for local youth.
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Washington County provide a safe and supportive environment for kids to learn, grow, and connect with others in the community. I volunteered at the Hartford Lincoln location, helping staff prepare activities, organize snacks, and assist with outdoor games and group events.

Community Values
Volunteering reflects my commitment to human-centered leadership and community engagement, aligning with my focus on supporting personal growth, building confidence, and creating opportunities for others to succeed.
These experiences have shaped my understanding that technology leadership isn't just about systems and processes—it's about empowering people to reach their full potential.
