Fun Fact

I built a lending library style community food pantry in my neighborhood and created a diversified coalition of donors to keep the pantry stocked and feeding our neighbors! Through grassroots field work and social media outreach the Richmond Community Food Pantry feeds people daily.

Passion

I am passionate about social justice. I believe each of us have a responsibility to integrate social justice work and intersectional thinking into our daily lives to create equity for all.
