Leadership
HOSA is a global student-led organization recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Department of Health and Human Services and several federal and state agencies.
I presented the Varnam.Health Initiative at the 2025 District Competition. Varnam is a health-focused project aimed at increasing awareness, accessibility, and advocacy around pediatric cancer care, particularly in underserved communities. As part of this initiative, I conducted in-depth research on the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment modalities, and psychosocial impact of pediatric cancers.
The project culminated in the publication of a comprehensive research report that synthesized current medical literature, clinical findings, and global health disparities in childhood cancer care. The report also proposed potential community-based interventions and innovative outreach strategies to bridge gaps in early diagnosis and supportive care.
This work demonstrated my ability to combine scientific inquiry with public health advocacy, and reflected a commitment to improving outcomes for pediatric cancer patients through informed, evidence-based solutions.

As Co-Founder, Vice President, and Lead Choreographer of the dance organization during my 10th and 11th grades, I played a pivotal leadership role in both the creative and operational aspects of the team.
I led high-energy performances at major school rallies, engaging audiences of over 5,000 students, faculty, and community members, showcasing cultural expression and school spirit through dynamic choreography. I organized and facilitated regular dance workshops and rehearsals for a group of 20+ student dancers, fostering a collaborative environment focused on technique, confidence, and unity.
