PHILANTHROPY
Starting at a young age my parents involved me in performing philanthropic work in Los Angeles and beyond. In 6th grade, I started a Lion's Heart Teen Volunteers + Leaders group with 19 friends and held the office of President. In 2019, I struck out independently and volunteered weekly at Kitty Bungalow Charm School for Wayward Cats. In 2022, I joined The Siblings Project and started the Student 2 Student tutoring support for struggling learners in elementary school. I am a recipient of The President's Volunteer Service Award (Silver) for 2022 + 2023.
