Volunteer Work

I have been both the school's yearbook editor and chief along with yearbook club sponsor from 2016 - 2020. In that time I worked with students after school, sometimes several times a week, in order to complete the schools yearbook in the required time. (Working 100's of hours of volunteer time in order to meet deadline goals.) Guiding and assisting with all creating, editing, sales and collections for the school's yearbook. As the yearbook club sponsor, I guided students through the world of editing and creating along with meeting deadline goals, instilling the students with a feeling of achievement and self respect for a project well done and a memory for a lifetime.

I have also volunteered many evenings after work to assist with after school projects and even 5th grade graduation!
