Youth 2 Leaders - College Readiness Programs at UCSB
Youth 2 Leaders Education Foundation partners with Migrant Education Program regions throughout the state to provide overnight college readiness programs. Students are motivated and guided through a series of workshops and leadership activities in which they learn how to become competitive college applicants, and leaders in their communities. I had the opportunity to create a documentary that showcases one of the Youth 2 Leaders summer college readiness program hosted at University of California, Santa Barbara. For more information about this wonderful Non- Profit Educational Foundation, visit: http://www.y2lef.org/pre-college-camps.html. | My role in this video was Producer, Videographer, photographer, video/audio Editor, and interviewer. I used a canon 7D and put together documentary using iMovie software.

My role in this project was Producer, Photographer, and Editor. I used a canon 7D and put together music slide show using iMovie software.In the summer of 2015, Youth 2 Leaders partnered with Migrant Education to launch the first STEM focused Pre-college camp at the University of Santa Barbara. Students spent eleven days on campus learning about the various educational and career opportunities in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The students also had the opportunity to take an introductory coding course taught by a software developer for Google! In addition, the students had the opportunity to hear from various professionals in the field and also got to work very closely with current STEM major students at UCSB. Participants took part in activities such as making a rocket, building a solar powered car, and visiting the marine biology reef- touch tank. Youth 2 Leaders goal is to continue this program in the summer of 2016.
