I was a volunteer for Friends of the <br /> Kaw a€` a non-profit serving the Kansas River a€' where I helped in riverbank restoration and <br /> water clean-up projects to improve recreation for the Lawrence, Kansas community.

I also will offer viewpoints from the UNC graduate student population - a large <br /> demographic in Orange County. Finally, my anthropology education has taught me how to <br /> navigate and understand diverse cultural perspectives through observation and listening. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> N/A <br />
