Building things beyond code

Leadership, inclusion, and events I've helped run across two cities.

Jul 2023 – Present

NASA Space Apps Challenge — Co-Host

Mountain House, CA & San Diego, CA

NASA Space Apps Challenge is an international hackathon with 400+ local events, and I co-host the one in Mountain House — my hometown. I partnered with cultural clubs at my school and the Rotary Club of Mountain House to reach a wider range of participants, drawing entrants from a variety of backgrounds, races, and economic circumstances over the past three years. I also launched a second local event in San Diego, expanding the program to a new city.

Founder & President

Mountain House Neuroguidance

Mountain House, CA

Neuroguidance is a non-profit dedicated to supporting the neurodivergent community. We hold monthly workshops and give members resources — internship lists, mentoring, podcasts, and more — to help them succeed in high school and beyond. I founded and lead Mountain House's chapter.
