I am being honored by Living Classrooms Foundation as a 2025 Rising Star, an award recognizing outstanding young leaders for their achievements and philanthropic efforts.

My day job shows my passion in giving back to our community, especially here as a Baltimore native. Working with Living Classrooms has been a tremendous honor and eye-opening experience.

In accepting this distinction, I have committed to raising money to help Living Classrooms fulfil their mission of working with communities to create effective hands-on education, workforce development, health and wellness, and community safety programs that bring learning alive to youth and adults in the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. areas.

I am so excited for this opportunity and thank you for supporting the effort!
