A skill I'd love to master one day: Bouldering or playing the guitar
The move alive I've ever felt: Summiting Gokyo Ri in the Himalayas
If I could change one thing about the world, it would be: More impactful and meaningful governmental, communal and individual action to combat climate change, especially those in privileged positions.
My favorite thing about Stanford: The shared growth between everyone on campus – I have learned so much from this most-accomplished student body but also have the opportunity to return the favor and teach others as well.
An item on my bucket list I'm particularly passionate about is: My hiking bucket list, which includes Tour du Mont Blanc in France and Machu Picchu in Peru
I became motivated to attend Stanford when: I saw how much my parents believed in me and what I was capable of. At first, I didn't want to apply because I didn't think I would get in, but knowing what they saw in me motivated me to try.
