I teach kids how to change the world.At 12 years old, I participated in my first food distribution with Joshua’s Heart and fell in love with the foundation. I became a regular volunteer and later joined the first Junior Advisory Board, a board of youth volunteers charged with overseeing food pantry operations. After more than a decade of service, I joined JHF's senior leadership team and worked to develop our new youth-led model. Today, I serve as the Director of Strategy, Operations, and Outreach, proudly advancing this youth-led model and establishing a mentorship network for our members as we grow our volunteer base and open more food pantries around the country. At JHF, we strive to engage and educate young people in the fight against global hunger and poverty. As we grow, my mission remains the same: to empower youth to change the world through kindness, teamwork, and determination.
