I support foster youth so they know that they aren't alone and that they are worthy of love.
Because this is awesome!

I like to go hiking or just for walks with a trash bag. People leave a lot of things on the trails. Sometimes you can find some treasures picking up their trash and even when I don't, at least it leaves nature back in its natural state.

Whenever I’m present during a conflict I try to mediate and help each side understand the others so they can reach a peaceful resolution.
I believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every person. I’ve always believed that though people sometimes do terrible things and hurt one another there are no evil people, only evil acts. My heroes are people who believe and promote this truth.

Everyday, I try to do at least one thing to make someone smile. This ranges from getting my roommate stressing about homework some candy from the grocery store to telling someone on the street how lovely their outfit is to holding the door for 5 people. Sometimes, even the smallest deeds like holding the door surprises people. It’s almost as if people don’t expect others they don’t know to be nice to them. I try to encourage everyone to just be genuine and nice to others, and it will help make this world a better, more loving place. Just start by holding the door.
People always ask me, “Zack, why are you so nice? Why do you care so much about me?” And it’s always so uncomfortable for me. There’s so much evil in this world, that people are genuinely shocked by my acts of kindness and caring. And it’s literally just who I am.

I try to be a good person in my life, whether that’s as simple as holding the door for someone or as complicated as listening to someone’s life story because they need someone to talk to.
I want to show people that there are other aspects of me as opposed to what you see on the surface

Being a vegetarian for two years now, and committing myself to protecting our big, beautiful planet, and the animals that live within it.
It's important for other people to know that defining beauty is not a neat and tidy set of labels. It can be love and kindness; it can be queer, or straight; it can be the rainbow and everything in-between.

I've welcomed tens of mourning strangers while just going about my business, and lent them an empathetic ear long enough to learn of their lost one and receive their thanks.
Any project encouraging a diversity of identities, while also being against-hate and discrimination, is one I would gladly participate in since given an opportunity!

I've done it once, I'll do it again.
Former member of campus gender sexuality alliance. Former Campus Educator of Sexual Assault. Just accepted a position to work for a non profit organization providing applied behavior analysis therapy to children ages 3-22 on the autism spectrum. I've been through hell and back but if my story aids others in their journey, a difficult tale is worth telling.
