Sara Salehani Graduate from College of Liberal Arts & Studies Degree: Bachelors of Science in Biology
I assisted in starting up this organization after learning about it in a Global Brigades Leadership Conference with my colleague, Autumn. I witnessed the impact Global Business Brigades had on various communities and GBB felt like a great fit for our campus, especially since we are fortunate to have a business college at UNCC. I envisioned that students with all majors would have the opportunity to embark on a journey, while learning, and building a local community that would help reconstruct the cycle of poverty, one brigade at a time!
Autumn Little College of Health and Human Services Degree: Exercise Science Major, Public Health Minor
Autumn plans to attend Physician Assistant school after graduation and work in a gynecology clinic. As the co-founder of Global Business Brigades at UNC Charlotte she hopes to connect each chapter on campus to one another. "I want to help spread awareness on the holistic model and its importance in empowered communities. I believe UNC Charlotte should have every chapter of Global Brigades on campus. It is important for students to realize the impact each field has on breaking the poverty cycle."
