Alisa Matsuzaki: A Senior Profile Portrait by David Smith (2014)

Alisa Matsuzaki is the leader of the a volunteer group called ''Ai Explore'', Ai meaning love in Japanese, so the name is basically I love to Explore. She hosts a variety of volunteer events with Ai explore, from going to Costa Rica to help an orphanage, or just doing a simple beach clean up. However, when you get to know Alisa and what she's about, you realize it's more than just helping people or getting recognized. For her, it's about sharing her positive outlook on the world with as many people as she can. She knows how much she has to give, and doesn't take anything she has for granted. When she goes to places like Costa Rica and Trinidad, she sees the other side. While she is there, she tries to give them everything they need, including a friend to talk to. Alisa enjoys personally interacting with people. She seems to let her co-hosts do most of the on-stage talking at events, but she is always walking around talking with groups and individuals.
