Philanthropy
15+ years of volunteering has enabled me to forge connections with other passionate volunteers, while fostering community building and extending a helping hand to those in need. It's deeply gratifying to invest my time, skills, and compassion into causes close to my heart, nurturing a sense of purpose and fulfillment, while providing vital assistance to others who are on their journey to heal. Additionally, I am grateful when able to support fundraisers and donation drives for important causes where the goal is to better the quality of life for others.
