Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
In high school I worked with the Special Olympics to help teach tennis to Special Olympians. As I taught them valuable tennis skills, I also tried to just bring laughter and joy to their day by hanging out with them like I do with my friends, and in return they brought me more joy than I probably did them. It is not hard to bring happiness to people...sometimes just a simple smile in passing can change a persons day.

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I started the Young Professional Lesbian Social and Networking Group in Worcester to bring together a community of young professionals that identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer in Worcester. The group holds social and networking events weekly and is made up of 100+ members aged 25-35 from a large variety of professions. The group is organized through Meetup.com is welcoming to anyone that feels this group is a place for them.
Why are you participating?: 

I'm participating because people often assume I am heterosexual and are surprised after working with me to realize that I am openly gay.

Tell Us Your Good Deed: 
I make it a point to perform a random act of kindness every day- something as simple as letting someone through in traffic, or something as complex as performing CPR on someone and saving their life in a grocery store parking lot (yes, it happened). I believe that one of the most important things in life is contributing something positive to the lives of others.
