Why is service important to you?

Service holds a special place in my heart because it allows me to actively better my community. I've always believed that to truly understand the impact your actions have, you need to witness it firsthand. Through service, I've had the privilege of working in different communities, learning from their stories, and, in return, sharing my own knowledge to help others grow.

 In a world that sometimes feels so divided and self-centered, I'm driven to be part of a future where we come together as a collective force. I've found that the key to turning dreams into reality lies in expanding your network and sharing wisdom. Engaging in service has become my compass and led me to life-changing connections and memories. 

What do you love about Philly?

Philadelphia, to me, is more than just a city; it's a collection of stories and experiences that makes our atmosphere so lively. What I love most about Philly is our diversity, which has been the inspiration for my creativity throughout my life. Today’s media highlights only the negative aspects and statistics. But the people who live here make sure our creativity and passions shine brighter than our negatives. And that’s the essence of Philly I cherish the most: our communities and their unwavering willpower to push forward.
