I CAN Rise Above Inc., a young women empowerment initiative, is a program that is meant to inform, inspire and involve young women in the Toronto area to become active citizens in their communities. It all started when Karen Mckenzie, a fellow student in my Bachelors of Social Work program at Ryerson was connected to me about helping her in creating the first I CAN Rise Above Inc. conference. Together, along with a conference committee, we not only created a conference, but created a movement for young women to confidently say that they could "Rise Above" any obstacle. During the conference my role was Volunteer Coordinator and Day Program Overseer, delegating roles to volunteers and making sure the day ran as smoothly as possible for the young women attendees, keynotes, performers and workshop facilitators. Over the summer, Karen and I conducted programming for young women in at-risk areas in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada. We facilitated workshops that helped young women create events about issues of awareness in their communities.

I worked in Epcot as an Attractions Cast Member at The Seas with Nemo and Friends as part of the International College Program (ICP). I managed the Finding Nemo ride and hosted a show called Turtle Talk with Crush, while creating a magical experience for guests of all ages.

I worked with different departments of the organization: In Communications I created a resource page of youth-friendly agencies for the website; in Events I prepared and helped run major fundraising events; in Human Resources I created maps that targeted at-risk spots for youth in areas of Toronto, and in Donations I inputted donations data from recent donors.
