Community Service & Volunteer Work
Volunteer in Tutoring, Being well-rounded in both academics and character, I was glad to volunteer as a tutor for classmates with lower grades. One student I assisted was initially introverted and unmotivated. Through my patient guidance, he became more outgoing and cheerful, and his academic performance also improved significantly.
SCHOOL EXPERIENCE
[School Anniversary Design Team Leader] I served as the design team leader during both my second and third years of senior high school, which further deepened my interest in design and solidified my aspiration to become an interior designer. Through this role, I gained valuable insights into design and architecture while working on my projects. Most importantly, I developed essential skills in communication and teamwork, learning to collaborate effectively with others to bring creative ideas to life.
Hobbies and Interests
I have a wide range of hobbies and interests that complement my academic pursuits. I enjoy exploring engineering concepts and reading about architecture and design, which nurture my creativity and problem-solving skills. Music is another passion of mine—I am a vocalist and choir member, and I also play instruments such as guitar and piano. I enjoy sports, which help me stay disciplined and focused, and I like cooking as a way to be creative and relax. Additionally, I am interested in planning events and leading design projects, combining organization, teamwork, and creativity to bring ideas to life.
Trading and reading stock market
After high school, I self-taught stock market analysis and trading using online resources, with guidance from my family and mentors. This experience improved my analytical skills, discipline, and decision-making in a dynamic environment.
