" Everybody needs someone to look up to, so that they can know that it is in fact possible to achieve the dreams being birthed in their heart. I walk through life remembering that fact and hoping that some aspect of my essence could be something that inspires confidence in someone else. That is why I am so passionate about improvign my skills and being open about my experiences and how they've shaped by understanding of the world in the context of the work I do. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Kind
Project Kind is a suicide prevention and awareness initiative that targets mental health among students. Our purpose with Project Kind is to mobilize Kindness Warriors across the nation starting with leaders within college campuses and trickling through people’s respective spheres of influence. We seek to achieve this by educating people on practical ways to cultivate authentic empathy & give people the tools to put this knowledge to practice with Project Kind endorsed radical acts of kindness.
