Middle School JL Stanford Middle School
During middle school, I focused on building a foundation in technology and critical thinking, taking four design courses to deepen my understanding of tech and innovation. I accelerated my math studies by skipping a grade and taking a high school honors math class in eighth grade. Outside the classroom, I spent three years in Model United Nations, honing my public speaking and global awareness through weekly debates and simulations. I also stayed active by playing flag football, track and field, and basketball.
