Aniya Carey

At 19, I’m a recent high school graduate and proud participant in the second year of the Maryland Corps/Service Year Option. As a Program Coordinator at ICLI RISING, I’m dedicated to fostering personal and professional growth, both for myself and for others. Being an only child, I’ve always embraced independence and self-discovery, which has fueled my passion for helping others navigate their own journeys. I’m full of life and outgoing, always eager to advocate for those who might not feel comfortable using their voice.

Whether it’s in a professional setting or in everyday life, I believe in speaking up for what’s right and empowering those around me. As I continue to navigate my path, I’m focused on building meaningful connections, advocating for positive change, and creating opportunities for growth within my community.
