“I have always enjoyed working for a nonprofit. I like knowing that the work I do make a difference to people personally. It is very rewarding to see the impact of scholarships on the students’ educations. The first few years while working here I also took classes and graduated in 2013 with my IT degree. I like to get involved with the community wherever I am. I serve on CCCC’s One College/One Book Committee.”
