Volunteering

Nurses of Kakelav, India In August 2014, I travelled to Kakelao, India to understand how I could help the local community market medicine to the local villagers. From gathering insight about the young female population, we came up with a campaign that encouraged women to get the "Glow of Health" which came from taking folic and iron acid tablets. Within 1 week, 25 new girls had tried the tablet with many more expressing interest to continue usage. My help was then further elicited to help market additional medicines.	Fort Mojave Youth Days Helped educate Mojave youth on positive personal branding and the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle by participating as a keynote speaker during Fort Mojave Youth Conference and Career Coaching in March 2014.	Dressmakers in Ghana Yamoransa, Ghana sits at a major crossroads betwee the Ghanaian highway system. The local dressmakers are known for their vibrant patterns and flowing design. Yet, despite this, they were not aware of how to make a profit or marketing techniques to increase sales. Understanding them and their situation, we were able to optimize their sales by teaching basic accounting, enhancing their storefronts with signage and cataloguing merchandise against sales.
