I was able to be a panelist for the first time in order to discuss my experience of study abroad in Costa Rica.

I volunteered to work and help break down the study abroad fair hosted by the study abroad office. This volunteer experience allowed me to answer students questions, affirm their motivations of studying abroad, and help the study abroad office by promoting the programs.
I was able to assist Mrs. Rawie for 1-2 hours depending on the week by reading to the students, helping with clean-up, and making meals.

I was able to find this opportunity to volunteer through my job as a connection to one of my co-workers.
