In my role as a student ambassador in the work‑study program, I  welcome new students and am helping build a student-led recovery and wellness community organization. As Volunteer Outreach Coordinator for “Make Mental Health Matter,” I speak throughout the community about the reality of mental health struggles—and how we can all support each other  I recently performed in a Recovery Comedy Showcase hosted by Second Chance Comedy, bringing humor and hope to conversations around recovery.
