Fellow:Sachal Jogi
Most of his lived memories were in Milpitas California, where Sachal spent his youth in sports like Football and soccer, and organizations like YoungLife and DECA. As a sophomore in high school he was offered an internship for a non-profit, The Bay Area Tutoring Association, where he helped assist with code writing programs for kids all throughout the south bay. After a couple years he was then offered a position at a full-service business hotel, The San Jose Marriott where he currently works as a Front Desk Host and an At Your Service Agent.
While attending Menlo College Sachal has found a way to make impacts in various settings. He began a club with 3 friends living in the same dorm, which has since grown to 50+ members. The club called BLOC (Black Leaders On Campus) serves to help underrepresented students get access to higher education, so far they have reach over 1,000 students in Los Angeles and the Bay Area. Sachal works for the college as a Peer Mentor in helping first year students with their transition into college. While working on these activities he was introduced to the University Innovation Fellows, where he hopes to create a technology driven campus. Sachal wants to create an everlasting impact on the world by breaking down barriers from where he is from.
