About Me

I have lived in Sacramento for almost three years now, and have very much enjoyed my time here. I am the Marketing and Special Events Coordinator for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Sacramento, and have been a Big Brother mentor for over a year and a half now. I am a member of the Young Professionals Committee (YPC), a group of dedicated individuals that do additional outreach and fund raising for Big Brothers Big Sisters. Previous to my work with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, I worked in radio broadcasting for seven and a half years. I have my degree in Communication Studies from San Francisco State University and just recently finished my studies toward a 2nd BA in Philosophy at CSU Sacramento. I am a member of the CSUS chapter of Phi Alpha Delta (co-ed, professional, pre-law fraternity). I am also a proud participant of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's TEAM IN TRAINING. I am currently training for my second marathon in support of LLS.

I need men!

And I need a lot of them. That is, I need men to step up and do some good in our community by becoming a Big Brother mentor. Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Sacramento Area is looking for volunteers to mentor youth in our program. Big Brothers Big Sisters is a one-to-one mentoring program, meaning our volunteers are matched with a child and the two of you spend time together doing a wide range of activities. Currently, the need is for men to volunteer in our program. We are looking for positive male role models to mentor one of the many boys waiting to be matched with a Big Brother. Unfortunately, due to a lack of male mentors, the boys often have to wait a very long time. A great
