- Took on a leadership role as Senior Volunteer in 'Chote Sciencedaan', a 4-week-long community service initiative collaboratively organized by Nixor Engineering Solutions and Adopt An Orphanage. The project aimed to inspire scientific thinking among children from underserved backgrounds through accessible, engaging, and hands-on science experiences. Led a team of junior volunteers in designing and delivering interactive science demonstrations and ensured smooth logistical execution at multiple outreach sites.
- I created engaging posters and video edits using tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Canva and CapCut. These materials boosted the program's visibility and enriched the participants' learning experience. This ensured every event was executed seamlessly.
