Bio

I am a highly motivated senior currently attending Troy High School in Fullerton California. As a part of the IB diploma program, my rigorous courses are entirely AP/IB level and have prepared me as I move on to pursue a college education majoring in Bioengineering. As an avid coder, I have founded the only JROTC High School RoboSub, a prestigious international collegiate Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) competition, even placing higher than notable universities including but not limited to UCSD, UCR, UCBERKELEY, and Texas A&M in the 2020-2021 competition. I am also a very creative person as demonstrated by my involvement in RRB Dance Company in the capacity of a company dancer and teacher/choreographer. Throughout these past 4 years, I have used this opportunity to increase my social, creative, and leadership skills, in addition to expanding my dance proficiency. I have been featured in a video game, multiple music videos, an NBC tv show, and have had the opportunity to be selected to dance with a number of bollywood celebrities. I use dance not only as a creative outlet, but also as a way to give back to my community and help fellow students build confidence. My future aspirations include applications of bioengineering to orthopedic surgery, inventing more cost effective and advanced robotic prosthetic devices.
