Priyanka Khadka, Youth Mentor Intern

Priyanka is originally from Nepal and relocated to the US in 2014. Inspired by her mother's involvement in adult education and her grandfather's role as a travel nurse, both deeply rooted in community service, Priyanka naturally desired to help people. Since 2019, she has actively engaged with multiple local nonprofits, dedicating her efforts to supporting those in need. Priyanka's overarching goal is to contribute to the creation of a communal community in the midst of an individualistic society. Priyanka finds joy in dancing, connecting with nature, and spending quality time with family and friends during her free time. Looking ahead, her aspirations include pursuing a career in social work, where she aims to advocate for social justice issues, make a positive impact on her community, and extend a helping hand to those in need.
