I love our Rotary youth programs and seeing the impact it makes on both the students and the Rotarians who interact with them including Rotary Youth Exchange, Seminar 4 Tomorrow's Leaders, Early Act, Interact and Rotaract. I would like to see us have an annual youth summit connecting all of our youth programs, their parents and Rotarians.

So many service projects to choose from but having the opportunity to travel to Honduras three times with Trinity Rotary and District 6950 to support Pure Water for the World project bringing clean water filtration systems and building latrines at schools and homes was life changing.

In his third year as the District PR chair, Jeremiah has had the pleasure of serving under three governors and played a small role in helping tell the stories of the incredible folks who make up Rotary District 6950.

Get to know a little more and read his answers below:

A.1 The ability to instantly connect the right people to the right mission — like a human creative switchboard that turns good intentions into real impact, fast.

Q2. If you could launch a new Rotary service project tomorrow, what would it be?
A2. A mobile storytelling + headshot studio that travels to underserved communities and small nonprofits — giving them professional images and brand stories they can actually use to raise money, attract volunteers, and be seen with dignity.
Because visibility is power, and too many good causes are invisible.

A3. 3.5 years

Q4. What is/was your career/vocation?
A4. Visual artist & storyteller. I brand people, places and ideas on the commercial side and I write love letters for folks who want to preserve memories of their families and special events.
