meet the board!

Hello Everyone! My name is Clarissa and I joined Made With Love because it felt nostalgic because I used to craft all the time when I was really little and fell away from it for a while, joining the club had helped me engage in my past crafting hobbies along with many other things I enjoy doing. I can't wait to meet all of you guys this academic year! 

Hello Everyone! My name is Jeanine and I joined Made With Love because of my interests in crafts and a call to help the community, and I was attracted to how MWL combined those two aspects. i’ve probably tried every craft hobby at one point, so MWL gave me the perfect opportunity to have another go at those hobbies. I hope to see you guys soon! 

Made with Love is one of the few clubs at UCI where I am able to explore my interests and hobbies in the creative field. With only one more year of being at UCI, I wanted to contribute to one of my favorite clubs a bit more as a board member. I want to inspire others to engage more deeply with our crafting projects while spreading Made with Love's mission. It's rewarding to transform crafting ideas to exciting and engaging events for new and returning members to enjoy!

Hello everyone! My name is Lucy Anne, and I am one of your Social Media Coordinators for this year! I joined Made With Love to find a way to de-stress and express myself creatively, while also giving back to the community. I LOVE crafting. Some of my hobbies include drawing, painting, and scrapbooking. I’ve met so many amazing people through MWL, and I’m so excited to join this year’s board! ^^

I've always loved to craft and create things, so when I found Made With Love, there was a community of people like me, doing crafts we all love! I've met many nice people and made friends here :)

A lot of my hobbies include crocheting and origami so Made with Love was a place not only continue crafting, but also to explore other forms of art like painting and sewing. I met so many people here who shared my interest in crafts, and it is such a fun and welcoming environment! 

I wanted to find a community of other people who like to craft. I also wanted a relaxing outlet from classes.

I find joy in doing art. However, I was desiring doing some more crafts to learn other, new art forms. Made with Love was exactly the club I was looking for to explore these other art forms while making new friends. 

I joined Made With Love because I love how I’m able to express my creativity, especially with crochet and DIYs, while being able to give back to my community and serving those who need it!

I wanted to meet new people that loved crafting and helping the surrounding Irvine community.

As I enjoy doing crafts, I joined Made With Love to continue my hobby while in college, while also meeting new people and giving back to the community!

I wanted to find a crafting community at uci and Made with Love was perfect for me. And free crafts 🤩

I wanted to use my time outside of academics to give back to the community!
