Bio

Incoming freshman at the Yale University pursuing a degree in Ethics, Politics, and Economics (EPE). Winner of two international economics competitions, president to three clubs, and founder to an initiative that has reached over 10,000+ individuals, I have grown as both a leader and teammate in the process. My commitment to advocacy and community impact is at the core of my work. I played a key role in advocating for the passage of Assembly Bill 2927, ensuring that financial literacy education is integrated into California high schools. I am a versatile individual with a strong affinity for taking on new challenges in fast-paced environments. I approach and recognize different sets of problems as opportunities to embrace strategic thinking and develop new skills.
