Contagious passion: The 2026 Gates Volunteer Service Award recipients

I wrote the headline, thumbnail text and description for this YouTube video.

Jodi Green and Mike Halperin are the 2026 recipients of the Gates Volunteer Service Award (https://uw.edu/giving/recognition/gates-volunteer-service-award), given annually by the University of Washington and UW Foundation Board to honor individuals whose enduring contributions of time, service and philanthropy encourage others to do the same. Green and Halperin have been leaders in launching and strengthening dozens of UW initiatives and programs, from CoMotion Labs (https://comotion.uw.edu) to the Be Boundless Campaign (https://uw.edu/giving/be-boundless-campaign) and the Innovation Roundtable.

Hear UW President Robert J. Jones, Vice Provost Ed Taylor, UW Medicine CEO Dr. Timothy H. Dellit and others attest to Green and Halperin’s vision, selfless commitment to service, contagious passion and deep involvement in both the University and the community.

The video also introduces Alejo Rico-Guevara, the Walt Halperin Endowed Assistant Professor in Biology and curator of ornithology at the Burke Museum (https://www.burkemuseum.org), who applauds Green and Halperin’s advocacy across the UW. The endowed professorship is named for Mike's father, who was a UW professor for 35 years.

Finding the right path | Be Boundless

I wrote the headline and article

When Gabriel Landau, ’25, visited the Port of Edmonds for a UW invertebrate zoology class, he had no idea what was in store.  
Then he spotted and held a soft-bodied, see-through marine slug, what Landau calls “a charismatic invertebrate,” for the first time. With this novel find, Landau knew that his decision to transfer from South Seattle College to the University of Washington had been the right choice. At the UW, he saw even more opportunities to explore his interests.
