Ethical Considerations
"Driven by curiosity, discipline, and community
impact."
My journey is defined by a commitment to excellence both within and outside the classroom. Every experience—from competitive sport and finance to women's health advocacy—has strengthened my belief that meaningful change begins by understanding both people and systems. I hope to study Economics to bridge the two and help build a future that is more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable.
