Leadership & activities
- Freshman · 2022 to 2023 Vice President Dual Language Immersion Club
Helped lead the club's events and fundraising as a freshman.
ResponsibilityStepped into a leadership seat as a freshman in the immersion program I had been part of since elementary school.
Decision & actionOrganized club events and ran fundraising so the program had the resources to keep growing.
ResultBuilt early experience leading peers and raising money, the same skills I would later use running a studio.
- Sophomore · 2023 to 2024 Independent Study A medical year, on my own schedule
Completed most of the year via independent study due to a health complication, and stayed on track.
ResponsibilityKept my academics moving through a health complication with no normal class schedule.
Decision & actionHeld a full course load on independent study and went deep on design, CAD, and making in the time I had.
ResultHeld a 4.22 weighted GPA and stayed on the path to the Golden State Seal Merit Diploma without missing a step.
- Junior · 2024 to 2025 Lead Studio Director ENN Studios (Eastlake News Network)
Promoted to lead director of the daily broadcast.
ResponsibilityTook over daily production for the school's broadcast program.
Decision & actionDirected, edited, color graded, and ran audio and graphics for every episode, and set the production standard.
ResultRaised the quality bar of the daily broadcast and earned the trust that led to the presidency.
- Senior · 2025 to 2026 President ENN Studios (Eastlake News Network)
Leading a six-figure relaunch of the program.
ResponsibilityEntrusted as president with a six-figure budget to relaunch the entire CTE broadcast program.
Decision & actionRebuilding the program's identity and systems: a new logo set, an on-air graphics system, a standardized production workflow, and a new program website.
ResultShipping a relaunched program this year, with repeatable systems the next class can operate. Owning a rebuild this size taught me to think in systems, the same way I think about markets.
BeforeInherited an aging identity, ad hoc graphics, and no standard workflow.
AfterRelaunched with a unified logo set, a reusable on-air graphics system, a documented production pipeline, and a live program website.
This is where my two worlds met: the design eye and the systems thinking I use on a portfolio, applied to building something real that outlasts me.

Bilingual & biliterate
Bilingual through my school's Dual Language Immersion pathway since elementary school, reinforced with AP Spanish Language. I served as Vice President of the DLI Club my freshman year and later volunteered back at the elementary school where it started.
130+ service hours, 100 of them on one program
- 100 hours ENN Studios rebuild
Most of my service went into rebuilding the broadcast program: graphics, systems, and an identity the next class inherits.
- 30 hours Elementary school, a return to roots
Volunteered back at my old elementary school, the same place my Dual Language Immersion path began. The 30 hours cleared the requirement; the program work is where I went well past it.
"None of this happened in a straight line, and that is the point. A club I helped lead as a freshman, a medical year I refused to lose, and a studio I now run as a senior are all the same thread: showing up, even when the year does not go the way you planned."
