About

I am an active community college student partaking in Northern Virginia Community College's Honors Program. I am the community service supervisor and recruiter for the honors club. I am currently coming to an end to finish earning a Liberal Arts degree to transfer into University of Virginia. My major of interest is Global Development Studies. I am an intermediate Spanish speaker and a beginner in Amharic, the primary language in Ethiopia. I contribute a lot of community service, as I am a member of Lang Street Community Garden and Arlington's Friends Of Urban Agriculture and integrate events with the honors club.
