The reason why I chose to address emergency preparedness the way I did was for two reasons. First of all, emer

Together with a team of artists, we created over sixteen coloring pages that are focused around a variety of holidays. Based on feedback given during my initial presentation, each page is geared towards either kids or teen/young adults. I partnered with an organization cal
