Speaking about the current pandemic and the challenges that it creates, Alyssa shares her thought on how to stay positive and make every day the best that it can be. Alyssa's advice is to " Stay true to yourself, keep learning about your passion and what your purpose in life is, get some hands on experience and keep learning". Further she says to take advantage of the time and learn new skills and stay active to "make yourself feel stronger and healthier, inside and outside". Alyssa believes that being kind, do random acts of kindness, being grateful and giving back to the community, makes you feel better and makes your community stronger.
