I am a 17 year old Senior at Royal High School in Simi Valley, CA. Since entering high school I have become extremely motivated to help educate my peers and local community on LGBTQ+ issues and how we can become a more inclusive and understanding society for all. 

I am the President of my school's Pride Club and regularly volunteer for LGBTQ+ and social justice organizations such as the Diversity Collective and The Human Rights Campaign (HRC).  I am a 13 year Girl Scout and recently received my Gold Award, which less than 5% of eligible Girl Scouts achieve, by creating an educational program for educators and groups on the correct use of pronouns and gender terminology.  Recently I have extended and updated the syllabus creating a thorough program that further helps educational establishments and businesses provide a more inclusive environment for their students, employees and customers.

During the summer of 2024 I was honored to receive the Women of the Year Award from California Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin and was also appointed to the California Board of Education's LGBTQ+ State Advisory Taskforce where I will serve until January 2026.  The taskforce was created to identify the needs of LGBTQ+ students and to make recommendations to assist in implementing supportive policies and initiatives to address LGBTQ+ student education and well-being.

I am also very proud to have received my Gold, Silver and Bronze Congressional Medals.  As well as my volunteer efforts I am an exceptional student and am currently working towards my International Baccalaureate Diploma and I am forecast to graduate with a 4.5+ GPA.
