Creativity:

I have signed up for HS Jazz Combo as a guitarist. I currently play acoustic and I’m hoping I will be able to gain some experience with the electric guitar through this activity. Jazz combo will also be focusing on improving our skills relating to improvisation.

Along with two other friends, we plan on building an electric go-kart to push our skills in engineering as well as learning new skills such as welding.

I will be leading the ‘Art of CompSci’ club which teaches high schoolers about programming in Java alongside the concepts of object-oriented programming (OOP).

Activity:

I will satisfy the activity requirements as I am currently enrolled in the pre-season badminton team and I will apply for the U19 badminton team next year when it is in season.

Service:

To satisfy the service requirements, I will be leading Tech Tinkers, a service that works alongside the local community to reduce electronic waste by taking in old hardware and recycling it (or responsibly disposing of it if required) and donating it to families in need. My role is as the tech lead; I supervise all subdivisions and offer support to the group leaders with the harder diagnoses.

As a technology and sustainability enthusiast, I was invited to join the Solar for East Initiative as Head of Technology.  Solar for East promotes a sustainable future by shifting our school’s energy source to solar power. I will be continuing my involvement in Solar for East as an addition to my service requirements.
