During her time in high school Chloe realized an important value of hers: giving back and working with her community. In late 2016, Chloe joined her high school's Food Pantry as a marketing volunteer. She worked closely with students, parents, and other community members in order to gather and distribute food and toiletries. Her most unique moment from this experience was to be able to meet the parents who organized the Food Pantry and see their perspective on how they give back to the community. Looking back, Chloe attributes this opportunity as one of the more pivotal ones in establishing her long term goals to work in the non-profit sector.

Being that Chloe does enjoy an active role in her community, in May of 2017 Chloe started working for a locally owned bookstore, Scrawl Books. On a day to day basis Chloe would be able to talk and work closely with customers to find that perfect book they needed, but sometimes she would find the customers helping her more than she expected. One of her fondest memories was during a late shift and a customer recommended a book to Chloe, instead of suggesting the recommendation and moving on, the customer then turned around and bought the book and gifted it to Chloe. She has kept the book ever since then and values it for the customer's kindness. She has learned so much about the people who live and work around her through this one after school job.
