About his Project: "As the Daycare Project Director, I’m excited to create engaging, educational, and fun experiences for the youth in our community. I chose this project because I love seeing kids light up during our events and hope to make a positive impact in their lives. This year, I plan to continue partnering with libraries and other community partners to create events that inspire curiosity and excitement. I’m looking forward to collaborating with our volunteers to make each event a memorable experience for the children we serve!" 

Why I Love VIP: "I love VIP because it offers our dedicated volunteers opportunities to make a positive impact through a wide range of service projects. Each project provides a unique way to give back to the community. I’m inspired by how VIP empowers members to create meaningful change and continually find new ways to serve and uplift those around us."
