Why you wanted to get involved with BRRWB: I have always been an advocate for mental health and have cared about those around me who may struggle with their mental health and well-being. Joining BRRWB allows me to continue that passion of helping people while also meeting some people who have similar interests.

A project/what you're working on as an intern: I am currently working on a project about therapy dogs and their effect on college students. BRRWB is pairing with a few organizations to bring therapy dogs on campus once a month to help students de-stress in hopes of being able to have more opportunities for students to interact with therapy dogs more often.
