Bold PointsBio
My life goals are to help people in the medical field through becoming a biomedical engineer and developing new biotechnologies, and help those around me by being an active voter in local, state, and national elections. I am most passionate about being creative and advocating for the people who need it the most, which I pursue through my music and my language and cultural awareness education. I am currently pursuing an Associate's Degree at a community college while in high school so I can be ahead of the game in my undergraduate program. My friend and I also founded a club at my high school to support young women who are interested in pursuing STEM fields, and I am an active member in my school's HOSA chapter. I also co-founded a club at my high school for women in STEM. I can't wait to pursue my passions in a rigorous and diverse college environment.

My dog is a short-haired boxer and sometimes he gets cold. My sister decided to put him in a sweatshirt! He was quite cozy and went to lay on his bed for a long nap.

Song: Glimmer - Covet
Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm1pwEBh7LX9Q18o2B0WYkBX17RReMEwj
I am a female instrumentalist and the song "Glimmer" by Covet made me feel seen. I've been playing electric guitar for four years and I quickly came to realize that there weren't many female role models in the industry. When I saw Yvette Young as a female guitarist playing my favorite genre of music, it inspired me to keep playing the music I am passionate about. The genre of math rock motivates me due to the exciting technical challenges in every song. This playlist was curated with some of my favorite math rock hits.
