My
Experience
I’m a student who loves exploring how creativity, discipline, and service can shape meaningful experiences. As president of Outreach Helping-Hand and host of the Academic & Career Webinar Series, I led community projects supporting immigrant youth and connecting students with mentors across fields. My passion for the arts runs deep; I’ve painted, performed as a cellist with the Troy Symphony Orchestra, and trained as a baritone in classical voice. I also express creativity through visual art focused on sustainability and identity. Outside the arts, I’ve grown through golf, both as a varsity player and as a coaching assistant, learning focus, patience, and mentorship. Whether through art, music, or community service, I’m always drawn to spaces where creativity meets empathy and connection.
Outreach Helping-Hand Organization
As president of Outreach Helping-Hand, I led over 340 volunteers in organizing weekly food and clothing drives, giveaways, and community fundraisers. We raised $6,724 during holiday seasons and launched initiatives like a 2,100-pound rice drive for immigrant families. Our efforts strengthened cross-cultural collaboration and supported underserved communities through Isaiah’s Rock Food Bank.

Academic & Career Webinar Series
As host and organizer of the Academic & Career Webinar Series, I led monthly sessions connecting professors, alumni, and professionals with nearly 600 high school students. The program helped immigrant and first-generation youth explore diverse careers while fostering mentorship, resilience, and a sense of direction.
