Most Rewarding Volunteer Experience
As a member of the University of Miami Sunsations, we participated in outreach programs throughout Miami. For me, the most rewarding experience was going into schools and working directly with young children who had recently arrived in the United States as exiles or immigrants.
What inspires you to volunteer?
A desire for change
Favorite Books
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah
Motto
"I believe true happiness comes only when you start to look beyond yourself and start giving and thinking of other people." - Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan
Describe yourself in 3 words
friendly, helpful, considerate
