I founded a violence-prevention nonprofit organization in Bayview
Hunters Point, a ghetto community, three years ago.
I provide electronics mentoring for at-risk youths. We have a special
emphasis on girls, since girls have been historically excluded and
discouraged from technical fields.
Here's a short video of some of my teenage girl students.

(music - Queen Latifah & Monie Love)
I have a waiting list of kids from the public housing projects waiting
to participate, ages 10 to 20 yrs. They love doing electronics and
building stuff!
