My Hobbies and Activities

I have many different hobbies and activities, but some of them are participating in Math Team at MAMS, pottery, cooking, and music! Other than that, I also like to read, play badminton (for fun), take walks, and play video games!

Math Team

Math Team is a club at MAMS where we mainly practice and compete in various math competitions. Some competitions that we compete include WOCOMAL and NEML. I also competed in the math team from my sending school, Shrewsbury High School. I really like math team because it gives me a chance to collaborate with my friends on tough problems!

Pottery

In my free time, I love to go to the Claytime in Worcester and paint! Below are some of my recent pieces! Although it does take a lot of time, time spent at Claytime is always worth it because the end results are always amazing! It is always so satisfying to collect the end result after hours of your hard work! The blue mug on the left is a mug that I made during Halloween (if you couldn't tell because of the ghost) and the orange mug on the right is a mug that I made on my birthday!

Community Service

The summer before junior year, I was deeply involved in volunteering with the Shrewsbury Public Library. During the summer, I volunteered in the Teens Room as well as the Children's Room. In the Teen's room, I helped shelve books and redirect anyone to interesting books and where they could find them. In the children's room, I was able to help kids complete the summer challenges and win prizes. Overall, helping out in both rooms allowed me to gain a lot of experience in communication and patience. Searching for that one book in a room full of books isn't easy!

Music

Since I was 5 years old, I have been deeply involved in music. I have been playing piano for almost 10 years, violin for 3 years, and flute for about 1 year. I have also finished 4 piano grades from the Trinity College of London, and I am currently working on Grade 5! Recently, I have performed at the Hindu Heritage Day Festival and the Shrewsbury Multicultural Festival.
