My passion for justice led me to be attracted to my school’s mock trial club, learning about the United States justice system and the inalienable rights granted gave me an intense, deeper understanding of how marginalized populations in the U.S. are oppressed. I became varsity team captain of the club in my sophomore year with my alacrity in the knowledge of the law only augmenting. To learn more about healthcare disparities in ethnic groups across the U.S., I joined HOSA, in which I gained incredible experience in the field of medicine and qualified for the international leadership conference in my freshman year as well as placing second in the state. In addition, through my process of grief I found healing in the arts and am a published poet and scholastic award winner in the poetry and photography categories. I wish to inspire others with my work but especially the youth, they are the future of our world and have the most extraordinary minds, I am vice-president of a non-profit called Live to Learn which helps children discover and learn more about the world through self-curated programs including math, science, and art. We are an official 501(c)(3) non-profit and target title one communities with our free or low cost programs. We have helped over 100 young students in our Beaverton, Oregon community.
