Tell us briefly about an event, project, program or initiative you were involved with at Stanford that you're most proud of.
There are many, the commonality of all of them is being part of something bigger than yourself. Knowing that you played a significant role or made a difference is what gives me a sense of pride.
What is one of your favorite memories while working at Stanford?
Aside from working with some amazing people, receiving the Amy Blue award. To unknowingly be recognized by those you help by doing a job you are passionate about is a wonderfully humbling experience.
