At the core of who I am, I make decisions that align with who I am and who I want to become. I believe that everyone has their own strengths, so I will follow mine.

Life boils down to the small things sometimes. I want to say thank you while I still can and not take anything for granted.

How many people do you know who will jump on stage to freestyle battle against a famous dance team in front of thousands of people? How many people do you know who will expose their deepest insecurities online through a blog post?

The combination of seemingly disparate experiences that I’ve dove into — such as dance, debate, tech, and business — is what makes me unique. I enjoy finding commonalities and disparities in the human experience across the world as it allows me to be a more empathetic listener and a more creative brainstormer. Such cross-functional experience has also allowed me to learn how to work with, and lead, people from all areas of life — from children in an office setting to adults in a dance studio. The versatility of my experiences has given me more confidence in the malleability of human capability, in that we can truly do anything we set our minds to.
