I volunteered at the 2026 FIFA World Cup! 
I had the incredible opportunity to volunteer at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, working in both Catering and Fan Operations.
Over the course of the tournament, I volunteered at five matches:
- June 18: South Africa vs. Czech Republic
- June 21: Spain vs. Saudi Arabia
- July 1: England vs. DR Congo - Round of 32
- July 7: Argentina vs. Egypt - Round of 16
- July 15: Argentina vs. England — Semifinal
Experiencing the World Cup from behind the scenes was completely different from watching it as a fan. From helping with stadium operations to seeing supporters from around the world come together, it was one of the most memorable experiences of my time in the US.
