I work weekends at a local Chinese restaurant. The job is straightforward on paper: take orders, run food, answer questions. During a busy shift, it has taught me to listen quickly, stay calm, and notice small problems before they grow.

I started a small group because photography and physics kept overlapping in my own work. I also help with Physics Club as secretary, where I run meetings, make slides, organize events, and helped get members into an AAPT contest.

Chess has been part of my life for a long time, including representing CCA and winning 1st place at a regional high school competition. Mindful Moves came later: two friends and I donated 30 chess sets, made 20 beginner flyers, and created 6 tutorial videos for young kids, low-income families, and children with disabilities.

Our Conrad Challenge idea was a platform for checking and explaining health information. I helped coordinate a five-person team and worked on the brief, prototype, website, and script.
