In my position as the co-president of the Black Student Union in my high school, I cultivated strong relationships with external partners to foster collaboration within our club, also spearheaded the development and implementation of distributed organizational structure to increase efficiency, monitored financial performance and implemented measures to enforce compliance with budgetary standards, and last but not least I developed and implemented new strategies and policies to establish long-term business objectives within our club to ensure growth and stability within the club.

By being an athlete myself, I love inspiring the youth. This means I acted as a positive role model for team participants and within the community as well. But also I developed and implemented effective training and skills development strategies to improve overall team performance, promoted good sportsmanship with competing teams on- and off-field, participated in fundraising events, by helping the team bring in funds to pay for travel and other expenses, and finally, I reviewed backgrounds and skills of potential players and coaches and initiated recruiting strategies to bring fresh talent to the team.

As the leader of both events pitch competition and Ted Talk during my senior year, I managed team meetings and discussed the project's goals and objectives, observed the progress of each project, examined risks and coordinated contingency plans, and aligned with my team members to develop, identify and achieve assigned goals and initiatives to ensure the success of both projects.
