Michelle has been part of the program since 2012, she was an O'bryant TAG Club Student, Summer Teaching Assistant, and Saturday Academy Project Assistant. Both TAG and Project ALERTA were apart of her family's history years before her, having family members graduate and attribute TAG | ALERTA as an important part of their lives. Born and raised by Honduran parents, at an early age was taught of the importance of obtaining a good education and became a graduate of Wentworth Institute of Technology, with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture.
