I was selected from over one million donors to represent charity: water as a brand ambassador. In support, I founded the running water program as a member of the social innovation fellows cohort at the University of Maryland. Running water won second place at the school's social innovation competition, "The Do Good Challenge," and won recognition from University President leading to conversations about how to promote good at UMD.
