As a tutor through the University of Washington Pipeline Project I was helping students from low-income high schools with their academics. I was helping the high school scholars at Rainier Beach in many different fields from computer science to English to mathematics. In addition to academic assistance, I also shared my experiences during their preparation and application process of college. During my time as a volunteer tutor I also focused on encouraging underrepresented minorities who may have be hesitant about pursuing a career in technology.
