Education
Sophomore year, I mentored failing students at my high school, Trevor G. Browne, through Boost Camp in order to help them pass their classes and learn study and organizational skills. Junior year, I helped my school's ACT-prep teacher by tutoring students on the ACT, especially the ACT Math section. Summer of Senior Year, I joined the Phoenix Union High School District Peer Influencer Program to help students in my school district prepare for college. I advertised college and ACT workshops on…
Sophomore year, I mentored failing students at my high school, Trevor G. Browne, through Boost Camp in order to help them pass their classes and learn study and organizational skills. Junior year, I helped my school's ACT-prep teacher by tutoring students on the ACT, especially the ACT Math section. Summer of Senior Year, I joined the Phoenix Union High School District Peer Influencer Program to help students in my school district prepare for college. I advertised college and ACT workshops on social media, informed my peers on financial aid and FAFSA, and reached out to them to offer assistance on college steps. After I was accepted into Stanford early through QuestBridge, I edited my peers' college essays, providing feedback. This eventually expanded past my school district when students out of state reached out to me, asking me to edit their college essays. Now, I am mentoring many rising high school seniors in different states with the college process, explaining my senior-year experience and editing their college essays.

Blood Divers

Designed and developed an educational VR game for the TreeHacks hackathon. Implemented player locomotion to swim inside their bloodstream using swimming gestures and learn about different types of blood cells as well as the process of endothelial regeneration (repairing the inner membrane of the blood vessels) by directly grabbing endothelial progenitor cells, stimulating their splitting nature, and engaging in repairing the damaged area of the vascular wall themselves. The blood flow reacts to…

The blood flow reacts to heart rate data collected by the Arduino via a heart rate sensor attached to the user's finger.

I started this project to continue the Newspaper Club in light of COVID-19. Without an online platform to release new articles and editions, the Orange Juice Newspaper Club would not be able to publish during my senior year of high school. I learned how to build a website during Summer 2020 at the Brandeis University App Design Pre-College Program, so I put my newly learned skills into building this project.

I started this project to continue the Newspaper Club in light of COVID-19. Without an online platform to release new articles and editions, the Orange Juice Newspaper Club would not be able to publish during my senior year of high school. I learned how to build a website during Summer 2020 at the Brandeis University App Design Pre-College Program, so I put my newly learned skills into building this project. I founded the website on my own; however, I eventually taught an underclassman in the club how to program and continue the website for when I graduate. We worked on the website together while I taught the underclassmen. Through this project, I developed the HTML and Javascript knowledge that I learned in the program. I also learned how to teach a peer and communicate effectively while working on a coding project.

Joaquin Bustoz Research Project
-
I completed a six-week research project with a three-person team during my Joaquin Bustoz Math-Science Honors Program at Arizona State University. I researched the difference between electric vehicles and gasoline vehicles, categorized the differences in the types of cars, organize data into Google Sheets, created graphs through MatLab, and presented the conclusion on which vehicle type was more worth it for the cost.
