Big Sister

Knoxville, TN
September 2015 Present

I have been fortunate to be allowed to work with Big Brothers Big Sisters of East Tennessee. I have been
matched with my little sister for over a year now and in that time our relationship has blossomed into the
sisterhood both of us hoped for. Coming from a broken home, she approached me timid with issues too
tough to talk about, however, she now is comfortable confiding in me and asking for advice when needed.
