Hi everyone! 

My name is Stefanie (she/her/hers), and I am really excited to be interning at the Girls on the Run Bay Area this summer. I am passionate about healthcare, education, and being in service to others, while continuing to learn and grow. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Psychology from the University of San Francisco. 

I am really excited to be joining this team, as I feel connected to the mission of empowering and elevating the confidence of young girls. As a woman myself, I know that there are many barriers and social expectations that women face starting at a young age. I am delighted to learn about this organization and the amazing impact it has on the lives of young girls nationwide. Even though I never participated in this program myself, it brings me so much joy to know that Girls on the Run Bay Area supports young girls. 

Interning with Girls on the Run Bay Area will be my first time working with a non-profit, and I’m really excited to learn from the organization and the amazing staff on this team. I am looking forward to using my skills and strengths on the various projects that I will work on with Girls on the Run Bay Area. 

In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with family and friends, going to the gym with my sister, and going to concerts (especially K-pop concerts!). In the future, I look forward to combining my love of science and service to help others. I’m looking forward to a fun summer with Girls on the Run Bay Area!
