As a board member, I read grant proposals, work with applicants on their projects, write and review approval documents for accepted grants. As vice-chair, I am responsible for writing the Annual Budget Report.

Jun 2019 - Aug 2019
My main task as a volunteer for Cleveland Legal Aid was as an intake worker for free legal advice clinics held throughout Lorain and Cuyahoga County. As an intake worker, I met with clients and gather information about why they were at the clinic and what we could do for them. Afterward, I would meet with a volunteer attorney to discuss what the client needs help with before bringing the attorney to the client.
