Community Health Related

/ Since 6th grade, I have served my community by participating in several different volunteer projects each year. Every Thanksgiving and Christmas, I help the Lakewood Rotary Club give out giving baskets filled with food, games, and books to the underprivileged in my hometown. In high school I gave my time as a mentor to a school on Western State Hospital’s property to help kids with behavioral issues learn how to adapt to life outside of a hospital. I also have helped hospitals, schools, and churches with their gardensand upkeep maintenance work.
In college I have continued with helping out the Rotary each year but on top of it, I have helped the city of Darrington, WA by planting trees next to the river and other planting needs that the community needed in order to bring back their plant life that was once there. In addition, this last year I was blessed with the opportunity to help out Blue Skies for Children with their annual shoe drive from April to the end of May.

  • My job was to make sure that this free-range camp was a well-oiled machine
  • I was in charge of 25 fourth grade boys and girls, my job was to make sure they connected with each other during our debriefs three times a day. Whether that was through games, talking about their favorite activities they did that day, or sharing a project they made.

Education

/

Lakes High School 09/2009-06/2013

I graduated Lakes High School in 2013 as an honor graduate with a 3.7 GPA. During my years there I played on the soccer and fast-pitch varsity teams all four years. My Junior and Senior year I was captain of the soccer team and my senior year I was also co-captain of the fast-pitch team. My sophomore year I was inducted into the National Honor Society, held a position for Key Club, and got accepted to be in the Ignite Mentoring program at our school. I continued these three clubs for my last three years.

Western Washington University09/2013-Present

Currently I am enrolled at Western Washington University with a Junior standing. I am a Community Health BS major in the Health and Human Development Department.

Skills

/ Throughout my volunteer experience and time spent at WWU I have captured a confidence that has allowed me to more easily talk to new people, connect on a deeper level, and share my ideas with ease. Balancing full time enrollment and maintaining a consistent work schedule has only reinforced me as a hardworking, dedicated, and passionate individual. Learning new things is a passion of mine, and understanding the complex is a challenge that I graciously accept, once I’m taught something I make an effort to not just memorize but to understand, and I do so in a quick and efficient manner.
