She is heavily involved in the refugee resettlement of her community, both through volunteering and her own organization catering to refugee teens. She enjoys raising awareness and facilitating meaningful dialogue for issues locally and internationally. Talia is inspired everyday by her peers and the little things in life. Her goals for the year are to engage her community in Senegal, develop new skills, finally use her French, and to enjoy authentic Senegalese food.
