From a 4-foot-tall, 3rd-grade entrepreneur dominating the school supply industry, to attending the University of Texas – Austin, my life hasn’t been the most conventional. As silver teeth caps glinted in the sun, I reveled in the rush of selling bunny erasers, unknowingly planting the seeds of my passion for entrepreneurship. Little did that spirited girl know, that her true calling awaited in college, where she would found her own business and redefine her purpose. It’s always been the excitement of being able to find innovative solutions, especially as a person from an unconventional background, that has kept me going.

I’ve always been multifaceted in what I’ve done and what I’ve learned. With my academics and extracurriculars, I get lost in the world of design, code, research, and management. In my free time, I enjoy dancing, playing sports, and hiking peaceful trails. I’m someone who tries to capture every moment, so don’t be surprised if I have my camera on hand. However, what truly inspires and motivates me is people. I’ve always wanted to create something that would be impactful to my community, and it came to life when I was able to found my start-up. I want to continuously grow, learn, and impact, and that is something that will never cease to exist as long as I’m alive.
