Psychology Student | Youth Advocate | Campus Leader
About Me
I am a Psychology major at Whittier College (Class of 2026) with a passion for child and adolescent development, inclusive leadership, and community engagement. My academic training, combined with hands-on experience working with youth has shaped my commitment to supporting social-emotional growth and equitable spaces. As a Resident Advisor, DEI Ambassador, and student government leader, I focus on creating environments where individuals feel seen, supported, and empowered. My long-term goal is to continue working in spaces that center youth development, mental health, and inclusive community-building.
“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive” – Howard Thurman
