I was born and raised in Inglewood, California (near the LAX airport) and attended Da Vinci Science High School in El Segundo, California. I was raised with a Catholic background and am a confirmed Catholic, but I have always been open and interested in learning about other religions, especially Christian religions. Growing up, I went to church often and volunteered at my church's charity events and occasionally participated in readings during the mass services. I graduated from UC Davis this past March 2021 where I studied Linguistics and Human Development, and now I am attending American River College to receive my AA to be a Speech Pathologist Language Assistant. I was able to study abroad at Yonsei University during my time at UC Davis where I studied East Asian Cinema and Beginner Korean Language. I am part of the Campus Rotaract Club of Davis, a community service organization at UC Davis, where I spend some of my free time volunteering locally, fundraising for international charities, and developing friendships and professional skills. In my free time, I enjoy listening to young adult fiction audiobooks and podcasts about true crimes and unsolved mysteries, studying Spanish and Korean, listening to music, and taking care of my house plants. I am excited to be the office admin for the Lutheran Church of the Incarnation.
