I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke where I received my Bachelors degree in Mass Communication Public Relations. Through my involvement on campus, I was able to find my passion for youth, service, and leadership development. My involvement on campus also allowed me to give back to a community that I called "home"​ for four years.

To increase CCCS'​ capacity, I created a social media presence through managing social networks
