Program Director
Take Ten Programs
I am a South Bend native, first and foremost. Not only did I attend the South Bend Public Schools, but I also graduated from Indiana University South Bend with a B.A. in Psychology. I am the Full-Time AmeriCorps Member with Take Ten. We teach students and adults of the Michiana Community a peaceful alternative to conflict/disagreement. While I do have an understanding of the community of South Bend, I want to immerse myself in it to grow as a person, and help my community grow as well.
