Alan F.

I’m a current student from West Aurora High School in Illinois. What motivated me to apply for the 2025-26 Youth Fellow position is my passion for leadership and amplifying youth voices, particularly from a Chicago perspective. As the leader of the Global Minds club, I’ve seen firsthand the impact that diverse perspectives and voices can have on our community. Through this fellowship, I aim to grow as a leader by developing my skills, learning from others, and collaborating with like-minded individuals.
