As a teacher, one pivotal experience that profoundly shaped my identity was volunteering at a local shelter for abused animals.
What is the personal narrative?
Seeing their resilience and the transformative power of compassion ignited my passion for advocacy and empathy. This instilled a sense of responsibility and empathy in me, steering my identity towards advocacy and kindness.
