Volunteering

Most of my volunteering has been with adaptive sports organizations. I have gotten involved with these organization in large part because of my sister, who has a physical disability. Through volunteering, I have had the chance to help everyone, no matter the background or ability, participate in the sports I love.

  • Instruct participants in stand-up and sit-ski techniques with a strong emphasis on safety.
  • Assist with site setup and teardown to ensure accessible, smooth event operations.
