Habitat for Humanity

The project pictured above occurred in May of 2017 and was the first time I volunteered for a Habitat for Humanities project. A group of volunteers and I helped improve the aesthetic features of the house after the contractors had completed their portion of the build. Since then, I have helped with two other projects and look forward to helping on others in the future.

LSAMP

The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) is a program funded to help undergraduate students within the STEM fields. This program is intended as a leadership and academic enhancement program that helps students strive to achieve excellence. I was selected for this program and had to conduct a two month project and present my data at a conference held in El Paso.

Meals on Wheels

Meals on Wheels is another organization within Tyler that I have volunteered at. During my time volunteering I performed light office work that included reorganizing and structuring client files, answering phones and looking over documents to ensure it had been filled out properly.

Pre-Health Organization

At the University of Texas at Tyler, the Pre-Health Organization emphasized opportunities available in health care and provided feedback and opportunities for students to become better candidates within the profession. I was a participating member for three years and was the treasurer for one of those years. I helped collaborate ideas with the organization for fundraisers and was in charge of all transactions.
