校友变革者奖
The Live Oak Alumni Changemaker Award is given yearly to an alum who models empathy and responsibility, demonstrates the capacity to create change in the community, and inspires action in others. In 2022, we honored our first Young Alumni Changemaker–a junior or senior in high school–recognizing that Live Oak students do not wait to make an impact in their communities. Most recently, we honored a pair of Young Alumni Changemakers from the Class of 2021: Justin Babler-Kuebler and Nala Urrutia.
2023 Alumni Changemaker
Brendan O’Callaghan ‘02 is the 2023 Alumni Changemaker Award for his outstanding work in public affairs and politics. Currently, Brendan is the Vice President for Marketing, Communications, and External Affairs at Calbright College, California's first and only fully online community college.
With a focus on competency-based workforce training programs for adult learners, Calbright aims to build a more equitable economy for underserved communities across the state. “Higher education struggles to support working-age adults, especially those from already underserved communities. The challenge of building a new kind of public community college from the ground up, to support Californians is exciting,” shares Brendan of this role and Calbright’s mission.
Brendan's passion for public affairs and politics has always been driven by his dedication to social justice and community development. He is a tireless advocate for historically marginalized communities and has used his platform to raise awareness about issues such as income inequality, access to healthcare, and systemic racism. His work has inspired others to take action and build a more just and equitable society.
2025 Young Alumni Changemakers
Justin Babler-Kuebler '21
Justin has participated in student government for his four years at Drew and has created a pipeline of future student leaders whom he mentors. In his role as Student Body Vice President, he has created seminars on independent problem solving, conflict management, prioritizing, and public speaking. Additionally, he works on The 415, a school-wide music and food festival that hosts 500+ attendees.
As manager of the Student Cafe, he donates the profits back to the school to subsidize event fees such as prom tickets. As co-founder of Drew’s Geography Club, he works to create intercultural understanding and appreciation among its members. As an Admissions Intern, he works on New Student Night which he transformed into an interactive experience that better aligns with the experiential pedagogy Drew.
Live Oak gave me the empathy and the ability to build relationships with people that is so important to being a leader. The school really taught me what it means to be a good person.
Nala Urrutia '21
Nala was selected to participate in an Ethnic Studies Working Group for her four years at Lick. Nala and her team’s goal has been to make Ethnic Studies a graduation requirement for all students at Lick. She advocated for the importance of Ethnic Studies to the school community, helped craft the curriculum for the pilot class, hosted forums for students to give input, refurbished the working group mission statement, and nominated students to lead when the seniors graduate. Additionally, she co-led a community meeting about Indigenous Art which included inviting an artist to speak about her art, her indigeneity, and how to use one’s voice for others. The Ethnic Studies course will launch in Fall 2025.
Live Oak implementing that idea that you can be a changemaker every day really helped me find my passion. I've been able to create small changes within my social group and school community.
