Volunteering is my way of giving back to the community that has given me so much. I try to focus my time and energy where it truly matters, whether it's supporting professional initiatives, mentoring, or contributing to shared projects. It's a humble way of returning the support, knowledge, and opportunities I've received over the years. If you see something I’m working on that you’d like to be part of, I’d love to hear from you.
