Volunteer!

Volunteering is something that is very close to my heart. I’ve been regularly volunteering since I was 10, however, I’ve been doing it for myself and hence I’m not going to showcase most of it here. The reason why I included this is because if you have any hands on volunteer opportunities, then feel free to reach out. I’ll be more than happy to help!
