“I live with my dog Bodie in Waynesboro, Virginia. I work as an administrative assistant for Hawassa Hope as an employee of GVAM. I enjoy this work because it allows me to find creative ways to use my analytical and communication skills to problem solve. The most inspiring part of my job is knowing that I am making a difference in the lives of children on the other side of the world. I also work as a contemporary and ballet dance teacher and choreographer at a local dance studio called Xpressions Dance Center. As a child, I always dreamed of being a choreographer, so I am lucky that I was able to fulfill that dream. Outside of work, I am a huge fan of movies. I even minored in film theory and criticism in college. In the future, I hope to continue to grow in my work with non-profit charities and find new ways to positively affect both my local and global community.”
