Skills

  • I work well in a team, have excellent communication skills in English, and can cooperate well with others, especially in a leadership position
  • I am very good at problem-solving, developing a logical series of potential steps/solutions and working until I find a satisfactory solution I quickly approach a problem from a new direction, even if doing so is outside my comfort zone
  • I can stay extremely calm and clear-headed in stressful situations, being able to step back and look at the problem/task as a whole and provide clear insight and direction to others
  • I know how to take clear notes on essential points and thoroughly understand revision techniques (eg, active recall, the Ebbinghaus Curve of Forgetting, the Feynman Technique, and others)
  • I volunteered at a soup kitchen in New York for three years of middle school
  • I have a great interest in technology, both on the hardware and software side; I built my computer and am very capable of navigating and using both macOS and Windows 10/11
  • I have a basic level in French of about a B1 level, after taking lessons both at school and with Alliance Francaise

Personal Information

Date of Birth: 13/06/2006

Nationality: United States Citizen

Interests

Regarding sports, while in New York, I played ice hockey on a team for eight years. I currently work out consistently six times a week and have been doing so for about 14 months. For me, working out includes meal planning, macronutrient tracking, and learning about better exercises and methods to perform an exercise.


Currently, I participate in a debate club at BICS, which has meetings every Tuesday, where we practice public speaking, including how we project our voice, our presence in front of an audience, and our confidence as debaters.


To express myself more "creatively," I enjoy drawing both in traditional (pen, pencils) and digital mediums. For the past four years, I have been learning how to use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit videos. I edited my group's video for my IGCSE Global Perspectives final project. I have also worked on countless personal projects since then.


In my free time, I enjoy playing/learning about chess, socially playing video games with friends, reading,and staying up to date on tech news (e.g., new smartphone releases, operating system updates, and the advances in A.I.).
