I’ve sought out opportunities that let me learn, grow, and give back. Through programs like LaunchX and the Kelley School of Business Women’s Leadership Institute, I’ve explored innovation, entrepreneurship, and teamwork while building real-world projects. Volunteering has been just as important to me. I’ve cooked meals for families in need, delivered food to underserved communities, and even spent a summer in Portugal removing marine debris through scuba diving. Each experience has deepened my commitment to community, leadership, and creating impact beyond the classroom.
LaunchX
Boston, MA | 2025
I was selected for LaunchX, a competitive 4-week entrepreneurship program. Working with a team, we built Nox, an AI-assisted stuffed animal tag that helps kids sleep better. I learned how to pitch, prototype, and most importantly, how to support my teammates. I was voted Most Supportive out of 80+ peers.

Rescuing Leftover Cuisine

International Volunteer HQ
Lisbon, Portugal | 2024
I spent three weeks volunteering in Portugal—scuba diving to remove marine debris and redistributing leftover food to families in need. It was both humbling and adventurous, and it deepened my interest in service that spans beyond my own city.
