What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can support students and communities, create accessible outreach materials, and contribute to research or advocacy work focused on equity and justice.

I've created flyers, videos, and announcements for the UCI Center for Black Cultures Resources and Research, helping connect Black student organizations with wider campus audiences.

Through the Underground Scholars Program, I connected students to campus resources, communicated with community colleges and justice-impacted students, and supported program events.

As an advisor with Activating Change, I share lived experience and recommend respectful language and strategies for discussing intellectual and mental disabilities in law-enforcement contexts.

I've also researched the adultification of Black juveniles under Dr. Nancy Rodriguez, developing a literature review and analyzing court documents.
