About Me

I attend Palo Alto College majoring in government. I‘m a member of the Student Leadership Institute. As an SLI student, I’ll learn leadership skills & travel to Austin, TX during April - Washington D.C. during May. Also, I am a Team Captain for the American Cancer Society Really for Life. Plus, I’m a political campaign aid for the Honorable Senator Barack Obama. Hopefully, I will become a political figure myself because I too want to represent the underrepresented. -RCR
