Abigail Austin
Abigail is a returning CLA Fellow Candidate in her Junior year at
Grand Valley State University. She is studying Psychology, Philosophy,
and Communications to better understand how to be of service to her
community and to help others thrive. She especially loves working with
kids and learning from organizations that seek to make a lasting
positive impact in their communities.
When she's not at work or taking classes, she enjoys playing
volleyball, long-boarding, and being outdoors or with her nieces and
nephews as much as she can. Special areas of study for her are:
Systems Theory, Conflict Navigation, and the Biopsychosocial Model of
health. She can't wait to expand her leadership skills this next year
with the CLA.
