How did you learn about Action Tank? Through Action Tank member, Emily Balog

What year did you join Action Tank? 2021

Why did you join Action Tank? I joined action tank because I always try to surround myself with people smarter and more motivated than me. the members of Action tank inspire me personally and professionally. Interacting with AT has improved my social health and enabled me to feel the satisfaction of true and continued service.

Share with us about the season of life you were in when you joined Action Tank and where are you now? I had just moved to philly, second year of a 5 year program. I did not know anyone in the area other than the folks I had been in school with, and even those were just online relationships. Meeting people in Action Tank through a PTF event completely shifted the way my time in philly ended up being spent. I had no idea what to expect, but when I started with AT, I knew it was going to be like attaching myself to a pumping and thriving heartbeat. 

Now, I am returning from spending the summer in Israel and moving to OKC where I will hopefully work and live for the next two years while I finish school and experience this internship.
