What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration and drives impactful policy initiatives.

I'm a dedicated and passionate student at the University of California, Berkeley, pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Public Policy. My academic journey has been enriched by my study abroad experience at King’s College London, where I expanded my global perspective. I am actively involved in various leadership roles, including serving as the Chief Strategic Partnerships Officer for the Asian Youth Liberty League, where I lead initiatives to foster partnerships that align with our advocacy goals.

Throughout my professional experiences, I have honed my skills in policy development, strategic planning, and stakeholder engagement. As the Internal Policy Director, I collaborated closely with senior leadership to craft comprehensive policy briefs and internal documents that promote transparency and adherence to our organizational values. My role as an Undergraduate Intern at the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office further solidified my commitment to justice and community service, where I supported critical case preparations.

In addition to my professional endeavors, I am actively engaged in research at the UC Berkeley School of Education, where I analyze participant data and contribute to meaningful projects. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a role that allows me to make a positive impact in the field of public policy and advocacy.
