I am an upbeat community organizer who educates the public on Planned Parenthood's commitment to sexual, reproductive, and gender-affirming healthcare while mobilizing them to support the clinics via sustaining memberships. I'm passionate about reproductive rights and enjoy training others to be effective communicators.
