Eliyanah Israel

I’ve spent almost the entirety of my life being apart of volunteer work throughout my church. Some of these jobs include food handling, cooking, general custodial work, babysitting congregants children/running the kids class for church, and tutoring. A few years ago my mom fell ill and I became her caretaker for over a year. I’d handle her medicine, change out oxygen tanks, maintain a watchful eye over her vitals, drove her to places, cooked and cleaned for her. While doing this I still managed to keep up with my studies, and maintain the household; graduating with High Honors, one of the tops in my class.
