\begin{enumerate}
\item I founded the Cricket Club at my current high school. As a founder, I was responsible for
popularizing the club itself by recruiting members and advertising through Instagram and word-of-mouth. I
organized practice sessions and I had to act as both a player and a coach, teaching new players the rules and
pushing them through the sport's steep learning curve. Each practice itself proved a hurdle, as I had to
find enough people to play at a common place and time, manage equipment, and ensure that everyone was engaged.
Due to the nature of a first year club, I had to help bridge the high delta between experienced and new players,
ensuring that everyone had fun while still being challenged. Then, I had to organize matches with other
local high school teams, which involved coordinating with their club leaders, arranging transportation, and
managing logistics. Through sponsorships from local businesses and colleges (UTD, RICE, DBU), I was able to
fund equipment and provide support for club matches.
\item I serve as the Co-Captain and Software Lead for my school's First Tech Challenge (FTC) Robotics team.
As the only programmer of our initially rookie team, I was fully writing out every line of code for our robot.
However, funds became a major hurdle, so I also filled in to help secure a \$750 sponsorship from Texas Instruments
through outreach events. As our team grew, I had to take on recruiting of new members, carefully selecting students who
would be a good fit for our programming and engineering needs. Once our team reached 5 programmers, I fully
transformed our repository into a GitHub organization, with multiple repositories
for each team member to experiment with
hands-on. I also had to delegate specific tasks and manage deadlines to ensure that our software development stayed on track.
For the FTC competition, I was also in charge
of documenting our software iterations and innovations, which proved crucial in winning multiple awards
for software design and innovation.
\item I am the Vice President (and former underclassmen president) of my school's Science Fair Club.
As an officer, it is my role to fully lead and plan our club's biweekly lunch meetings. This involves brainstorming engaging
activities with other officers, and preparing 35-40 minutes detailed presentations on various aspects of science fair projects.
I have prepared extensive materials on project brainstorming, project methodology, data analysis, and trifold tips to help guide
over 90 active club members. Additionally, I help students one-on-one through email or in-person (after meetings) to share
my experience to help students make the right decisions. Finally, as a student who has been intimidated by
the science fair process, I plan and cater my presentations to help lower the barrier to entry for new students and underclassmen,
recruiting members by making science fair more approachable.
