I attribute the person I have become today to the unwavering sacrifice and dedication of my parents, who journeyed from the Philippines to provide me with a life beyond their wildest dreams. Their relentless hard work and selflessness serve as my daily motivation. Presently, I work in communications at Tacoma Community House, an organization with a rich history spanning over a century in serving immigrants and refugees. I invite you to join me in the collective effort to invest in and cultivate a welcoming haven for individuals in need, ensuring that everyone who walks through our doors finds the support and encouragement necessary for their journey towards a better life.
