  I give back to my community by helping grow the Ozark Foothills African American Museum's social media presence.  The Ozark Foothills African-American History Museum is located in Twin Groves, AR. The museum's mission is to recover, research, collect, preserve, interpret, teach, and promote knowledge and appreciation of the African people, with an emphasis on African-Americans. The Museum's founder is Ms. Albessie Thompson. I work alongside her to educate our community by creating informative posts. The post includes history about our community's past and research about our many ancestors who developed the small town. Posts are also related to the Memorial Garden recently built to honor the community's families. As the organization's social media manager, I work hard to attend city events and make sure photos are uploaded. My most recent post for the museum is a part of a series titled "The Plight of Homesteaders in the Foothills of the Ozarks." The...

 I am a member of the joint Henderson State/Ouachita Baptist University ROTC (Army Reserve Officer Training Corp) Program. I started the program in January 2022 after completing military training six months prior. I decided to join the program and work towards becoming an officer once I decided to make the Army my career. So far in the program, I have completed two military science courses: Advance Leadership and Tactics & Army Doctrine and Decision Making. I was selected to compete on the Fall 22 Ranger Challenge Team. I helped work the ROTC Push-Up Board at all HSU home football games this season. I currently serve as my company's XO. I am in the process of planning our company's Annual Dining Out Event. I will attend Advance Camp this summer and look forward to getting into Air Assault School.
