Creative / Arts

Piano: 12 years of study; perform classical (Rachmaninoff, Chopin, Beethoven, Bach) and contemporary (Einaudi) music. Compose original pieces in G, C, and A minor. I perfom in competitions, at school, and at nursing homes to uplift community spirit amongst the elderly. Also, I am a member of a school club, Music for a Cause, in which I play music to raise money for those in need.

Writing & Poetry: I am an avid writer who writes numerous poems and short stories. I have published works in American Library of Poetry’s “Excellence,” Greenhill Montage Magazine, and my own upcoming poetry book.

Theater:  Acted and directed various plays in Student Production class. Acted in school play, "The Crucible" as double casted John Proctor. Performed student productions at Dallas art festivals.

Independent Reading & Research: Explored anthropology through independent reading (ethnographic case studies), connecting cultural studies to global economics. Also, I focus on how cultural values influence global markets, consumer behavior, and financial decision-making.

Investing Exploration: I explore stock trading and companies by researching company performance, following market trends, and practicing small trades via Schwab to gain a better understanding of investing and portfolio management.
