Valeria Lopez: Service

Hi sisters! My name is Valeria Lopez, and I’m a Public Health and Political Science major from Sunnyside, Washington, which is in Central WA about 40 minutes from Yakima!

Fitness has become such an important part of keeping my mind and body healthy.

Meera Beauchamp: Artisans Reflection

There is a saying that a picture is worth a thousand words. I would argue that actions speak far more than words ever can. When I first met my mentee, she was extremely shy and quiet. She would respond to my questions with one or two words, but never more. However, by observation alone I learned more about my mentee’s personality than I could’ve by asking the normal get to know you questions. She is so caring and quick to help anyone and everyone, whether it be other mentees at Artisans or Zag fans at Gonzaga basketball games. The more time we spent together, the more she began to open up. While our conversations are never extensive, we both enjoy the companionship we share together at Artisans. There is definitive care for one another that doesn’t need to be verbalized because a hug and smile says so much more.
