Bio

My parents immigrated to the U.S. and I'm the first in my family to attend College here in the States. I'm curious and love exploring new ideas, especially those beyond what my family traditionally does. I enjoy staying active every day, biking and playing tennis. Science and medicine fascinate me, and I want to use them to help people who lack resources.

    • Dream career goals:

      I plan to major in computer science to pursue a career in public health and community advocacy on the administrative side. My passion for service has driven my work with nonprofits, youth leadership, and global outreach, including raising over $2,000 for children abroad. As a Clinical Student Assistant and Teens in Health member, I supported underserved families through health education and tech-based resources. I’ve also represented student voices on local councils, advocating for equity and civic engagement. These experiences showed me how technology, paired with service and policy, can create scalable, lasting change. My goal is to lead initiatives that expand healthcare access, promote preventive care, and empower communities through education and innovation.
