String aboutMe =
" My name is Erica Dong, and I’m currently a junior at the Massachusetts Academy of Math and Science @ WPI. Both of my parents are Chinese, but I was born in San Jose, California. From there, I moved to China, then Virginia, New York, Ohio, and finally Worcester, Massachusetts! I have one sibling, my older brother, who currently goes to Northwestern University for computer science. My main areas of interest are computer science and math. ";

String interests =
" I love food! I especially like desserts and fruit. My favorite fruit is probably persimmon. I also love cats, going on roller coasters, and watching video game playthroughs. I draw occasionally. Recently, I've started sketching in pen, which has taught me to draw faster and be more confident with my strokes. When I'm bored, I play Tetris, practice pen spinning, or do jigsaw puzzles. In addition, I enjoy hiking with my family. Over the summer, we hiked at Golden Gate National Recreation Area and Acadia National Park, among other places. I also like lifting. " ;

String extracurriculars =
" I have experience in extemporaneous speaking, original oratory, robotics, Science Olympiad, Junior State of America, the Wharton Global High School Investment Competition, and poetry slams. I also do competitive math, regularly participating in both individual and team competitions. For example, I had a great time at the American Regional Mathematics League as a part of the Ohio all-state team last year. In addition, I program, participating in both the USA Coding Olympiad and some hackathons. What I enjoy the most, however, are personal projects, which have facilitated my creativity and forced me to teach myself important coding skills.
On the musical side, I’ve played violin since I was seven and have participated in both youth orchestras and chamber groups. As for athletics, although I don't do anything currently, I’ve done skiing, snowboarding, figure skating, tennis, and bowling in the past.

String chineseSchool =
" I currently volunteer as a teaching assistant for the Massachusetts Beijing Chinese Language School (Mass BCLS) based in Worcester. I help teach Chinese to kindergarten students every Sunday, including responsibilities like storybook reading, activity ideation and execution, and classroom management. Generally, I work with the teacher to fill any needed roles. I've greatly enjoyed getting to know the kids and improving my teaching skills. " ;

String massAcademy =
" I volunteered to prepare and teach STEM activities at Abbey Kelley Foster Charter School on two separate occasions. The first was for an activity on bird beaks and evolutionary adaptation that involved students using different tools to pick up different objects (bird food). The second was for an activity on spool racers and energy that involved students building their own spool racers with various materials. The activity challenged them to iterate on their prototypes and develop the fastest racer. Through these experiences, I not only bonded with the students but also learned more about working with middle schoolers.

I also volunteered at the first Mass Academy Director's Meet and Greet, greeting and touring prospective families. I had a great time seeing the potential future students of Mass Academy and was able to practice my public speaking skills in the process.

String audioJournal =
" Audio Journal is a Worcester-based organization that broadcasts newspaper readings and other radio services to print-blind listeners. I first underwent training in audio editing and newspaper preparation. Then, I volunteered for the Sunday live readings of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, which included finding appropriate clippings from the physical newspaper and reading them on air with a partner. I had a great time learning more about the organization's cause and exercising my public speaking skills during the readings. " ;
