I graduate in May of 2020 in the top 10% of my class. During my high school career, I have concentrated on all the AP classes available to me, and have also been elected to the National Honor Society, National Latin Society, Spanish Society, among others.

The summer between my Sophomore and Junior years, I attended a summer Japanese language program in Tokyo, and returned to Kyoto Japan for my entire Senior year, studying in a full immersion program at a local Japanese high school in Kyoto, while living with a local Kyoto family. In addition to a full academic load at the Japanese high school, I traveled to other cities in the prefecture, and took part in clubs and groups.

I have now been accepted into the NYU Shanghai program, where I will begin my college career in the fall studying in Shanghai, China. I plan to concentrate on a STEM-related field of study and Mandarin Chinese language.
