As an undergraduate student at Virginia Tech, I am a member of the GenerationOne Living-Learning Community (GenOne LLC), where I engage with peers and faculty, as a mentor to First Generation students to develop academic, professional, and personal skills as a first-generation college student. In addition, I am an active member of the Eritrean and Ethiopian Student Association (EESA), contributing to cultural events, community-building initiatives, and fostering a supportive environment for students of Ethiopian heritage and those interested in the culture.
I have assisted in organizing student events and activities for campus engagement.
I’ve collaborated with peers to support academic projects and group assignments.
I actively communicate with faculty regarding course requirements and academic support.
I have participated in a variety of campus events, such as career fairs, lectures, and workshops.
I have volunteered for community service projects, applying academic knowledge in real-world scenarios by engaging in volunteer opportunities to support local community initiatives (i.e The Big Event)
