I’ve learned a lot about student activism, being a leader, and how to balance remote work and my health. Overall, my experience wasContinue reading “Farewell to Student PIRGs”

My Space While Working Remote
The maps of my spaces I inhabit daily are unique to my internship as a PIRG Fellow. Due to my experience being 100% remote, my work life revolves around this. My apartment room is very important to me as it facilitates my ability to complete my work and participate in my internship to the bestContinue reading “My Space While Working Remote”
Developing a Sense of Community Through Zoom
Community to me has always been more than just a physical space. Through social media and forming bonds through sports, interests, and traveling, your community and network can be as large as you can imagine. With the use of the internet and social media, these connections can be limitless. Through my experience with Student PIRGs,Continue reading “Developing a Sense of Community Through Zoom”
Solidarity Through Common Goals
As a leader in student activism, I have been leading a group of students on a campaign promoting the restoration of America’s Wildlife. Through this, I have seen the true power of solidarity which is defined as a unity or agreement of feeling or action, especially among individuals with a common interest.

Patients must be fully honest about what they areContinue reading “Solidarity in Healthcare”

Onto the Second Half!
This past week has been so mentally draining and extremely busy for me, that is why I have been so MIA! I just completed my finals for my Organic Chemistry 2 and Physics 1 class and I am so happy to be done with classes and have a nice mental health restart! However, I finallyContinue reading “Onto the Second Half!”
End of Summer
My experience this summer has honestly been life-changing. Not only did I travel to Morocco but I traveled to Costa Rica as well. I traveled across the world on my own into a different time zone. It felt liberating, but I was also terrified of being by myself. While I was in Africa, I wasContinue reading “End of Summer”
