June 2025 Updates
Hello, everyone! I hope June has been treating you well! My updates for this month are below.
- The donor project I started last month has been continuing well. I’m learning so much about the people involved in our organization and it’s been very intriguing!
- Now that it’s summer, I’m back on pet-sitting duty, and it’s been fun taking care of other people’s animals.
Thank you for reading my June updates! You are welcome to share any research you have been working on or gigs you have been doing in the comments! This month, I encourage you to donate to the Sameer Project, a Palestinian initiative working to provide medical aid, supplies, and food in Gaza.

May 2025 Updates
Welcome, everyone! I hope your May has been delightful! I posted my updates for this month below.
- I started a new donor-related project at work, and it has been interesting learning more about the development and marketing side of nonprofits.
- I am now working on a cookbook both for my full-time job and for the Council on Aging I volunteer at, and it’s been rewarding reviewing so many different recipes!

This month, if you live in the US, I encourage you to contact your congresspeople to urge action regarding the ongoing forced famine in Gaza here and to advocate against cutting SNAP here.
