Founder of Sister to Sister - a student organization that strives to assist minority women at MSU Denver

Project: Sister to Sister is a student organization that strives to assist minority women at MSU Denver with scholarship, college retention, mind and body wellness and community service. We tailor our workshops and services to the intersectionality that women of color face everyday in their community and personal life. We provide a safe space for self-actualization, self-care, and self-empowerment for women of color on their journey through their college experience.

Inspiration: Seeing the need for a safe space for Women of Color on Auraria campus

Future Plans for Project: A student org that will bring forth fellowship, self-care and activism
