    • LightHouse Program Engagement Coordinator
      • Sep 2023 - Present

      The LightHouse program of Volunteers of America North Louisiana, is a quality after school and summer program, that provides academic, social, and emotional support for children, teens, and families in need. As the Engagement Coordinator, I work closely with site coordinators to engage family members and build relationships to bridge the gap between home, school, and after school for our students. In addition, I am always looking for new ways to provide STEM, literacy, and other activities that will benefit our students and the program's overall success. Show less

    • PTO President
      • Jul 2022 - Jun 2023

      This was my most challenging volunteer role to date - and it definitely felt like a full-time job at times! I worked seamlessly with my team of 5 board members and 18 committee chair positions to create a welcoming, engaging, and fun overseas environment for our 815 students and 101 teachers and staff. You can see the individual milestones I accomplished on my resume, but what I’m most proud of is our team’s dynamics and our ability to work together effortlessly in a fast-paced environment, the unique school culture we created, and the legacy that will continue for years to come!
