Previous Education and Experience: Before VISTA I was still working on graduating high school. I left two weeks after I walked.

My greatest strength is to adapt to different challenges and relate to other people.

My greatest accomplishment as a VISTA: Finishing the Freemans’ house, start to finish. I loved the feeling waking out after seeing it through.

My projects: I’ve worked so many places, from blocks away from the CRC (420 B Ave.) to miles away (windows at 26th Street NW). I’ve learned from drywall to tile, from texture to trim.

How I build capacity: Teach and lead others in various jobs. Whether they teach others or come back again, I feel like a vital part of my program.

Fun fact about me: I have an indentical twin who lives in Washington State.
