Roberts has a passion for serving her community and lending a helping hand wherever possible. YES is an organization that embodies this notion and this was a driving factor that led her to want to join the board. Previously, Roberts has been involved with non-profit work in New York City, working with agencies that help children in need of school supplies and guidance and in college worked with Girls Inc. Roberts hopes to be a positive addition to the board and is personally delighted to be a part of the upcoming endeavors YES will accomplish in 2022.
