My Passion

Public Speaking

I fell in love with public speaking at a very young age. I use my voice to advocate for change, to rally movement, and to inspire others.

On behalf of Harris County executive, Lina Hidalgo, I talked about my parents' immigrant story and rallied naturalized citizens to vote.

Leading youth from 16 countries, I called on Formula 1 to end tobacco sponsorships.
