My name is Rebekah Woodburn and I am 21 years old. I am originally from Dublin, Georgia, but have attended Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida, for the past four years, where I have been involved with the varsity sailing team, Office of Admission, Biology Department, Chemistry Department and Center for Spiritual Life. I will be graduating in May of 2019 with a Bachelor of Science in biology. I am passionate about learning how life works and how many components on a multitude of levels work together to create the beauty that comes with life. Along with this passion comes a desire to protect it through caring for the environment and people around me. I am excited to spend a year with the YAV program to focus on this, by working with food justice in Boston, and how that coincides with my faith.
