Youth Empowerment Summit - A seminar to introduce college education

This program was especially important to me because it was much more than giving a talk or conducting a seminar.
I concieved, designed, invited, coordinated and conducted the entire program. It was a lot of work! From inviting the speakers to creating the agenda to interacting with prospective attendees, the work was spread over 2 months.
The program was designed to introduce the young students to the process of applying for college. I was fortunate enough to have an excellent group of speakers. Vu Van spoke on financial aid and scholarships, Michael Mulfich interacted with the students during lunch and discussed various aspects of college life and cost, Heather Alva shared tips about taking SATs! Frank Sanders and Julia Halprin Jackson gave excellent presentations on college life, travel and work.

Brenda Pieper, founder of the charity TT1, promised to continue this program on a yearly basis! On the whole, it was really and very rewarding experience for me.
