Julianne T
Julianne was inspired to join the student board in September 2018 through her friendship with Hannah. Working with her principal and a faculty sponsor, Julianne started an IGYB Kindness Club at her elementary school. Each month, Julianne and her student ambassadors engage the whole school with different kindness or inclusion challenges.
Being part of IGYB has provided Julianne with public speaking opportunities, and she has also had the opportunity to meet the Governor of New Hampshire and Mayor of the City of Manchester. One of her favorite events was participating in face painting at the High Hopes Foundation Pirates and Princesses fundraiser to help terminally ill children in NH.
Julianne’s favorite activity is figure skating. She has been skating for 6 years and is also on a synchronized skating team that competes at the Eastern regional level representing New Hampshire. Through the sport, she has learned about inclusion, compassion and teamwork, characteristics that align well with the mission of IGYB.
Julianne also enjoys skiing and playing her flute for her school band.
