Granted amnesty to an ant that was crawling around on my foot - I released it back into the wild.
Traveler Stereotypes Redefined
Motivate others through the laughs and tough times
I try to smile and greet people I walk by on the street.

In high school I worked with the Special Olympics to help teach tennis to Special Olympians. As I taught them valuable tennis skills, I also tried to just bring laughter and joy to their day by hanging out with them like I do with my friends, and in return they brought me more joy than I probably did them. It is not hard to bring happiness to people...sometimes just a simple smile in passing can change a persons day.

I am dedicated to helping college students accomplish their dreams and I present an LGBTQ training for Career Service professionals locally and nationally to help counselors provide career specific advice to the LGBTQ population.
Because this is an incredible project that focuses on the positives in everyone and helps to extinguish stereotypes.
I actively help new students get acclimated to a new place as a resident assistant. The little deeds everyday is what makes someone's day.
I make it a point to perform a random act of kindness every day- something as simple as letting someone through in traffic, or something as complex as performing CPR on someone and saving their life in a grocery store parking lot (yes, it happened). I believe that one of the most important things in life is contributing something positive to the lives of others.

I am starting a business that does social media consulting for do-gooders: like nonprofits, yoga studios, meditation centers, alternative medicine clinics and life coaches. After working in direct service at non profits for a few years, I am excited to help organizations that are doing great work optimize social media to get the recognition and support they deserve.
I love to do everything I can to make people smile when they're down
