Membership Junior Coordinator & Executive Assistant
Balboa High School
Class of 2024
If I became invisible for 10 minutes right now I'd probably just go spy on my family members. I can't really do much in 10 minutes so I think I'd just go and mess with them a little. Probably scare them with "floating objects", their reactions would be really funny to watch.
Wanting to be able to take care of family and myself is something that motivates me a lot. I want to be able to take care of myself in the future so that my parents wont have to constantly worry about me. This makes me want to do my best inside and outside of school. So whenever I'm in a rough mindset, this really helps to keep me moving.
I'm an Events APM and EA. My responsibilities in this position are to make sure events run smoothly and I'm currently a membership junior coordinator and TEA. In the membership department i draft emails and make contacts for new HIM members that just signed up. I also just finished training for TEA so I'm excited to see what ill be doing after.
One of my favorite TV shows is probably Legend Of Korra. I know a lot people say its not as good as the first series but i actually really enjoyed it. One of my favorite characters from this show is probably Korra's pet polar bear. The polar bear is very cute and i love how they are always there to help Korra when she needs it.
One food i could probably eat for the rest of my life is noodles. I eat it pretty often already and i never seem to get tired of it. They can be cooked so many different ways and they all seem to taste good so i think i could handle it for a lifetime.
Being apart of the HIM leadership crew feels like working with a very productive team! Its very fun and nice to be able to work with such motivated people. They are always communicating with each other to keep things running smoothy. Along with that, the team also makes things fun, and you end up being able to make new friends.
So far, Heart in Motion has really improved my leadership and speaking skills. Not only has it benefited my skills but I've gotten to meet many new people. Its given me a lot of new experiences and has shown me what its like in an workplace environment, which I think will be very useful in the future.
Since these runs are for charities i think its nice that i get to do my part to help. Waking up early can be difficult but its nice to know that I'm able to help someone else in need. Along with helping make a difference its also a chance for me to meet new people. Not only that but i think volunteering has helped me improve my people skills.
My advice to anyone thinking of joining our leadership program is just give it a try! I was also unsure of whether this program was right for me but once I gave it a try, it ended up really affecting my life. Trying it won't hurt and you might just end really enjoying it. Not only that but its a great to just experience and improve skills you'll need in the future.
Building character to me means to try to be the best person you can be. I think its very important to try improving yourself because in the end it will help you and others around you. It might be hard to get through situations but i think in the end it will also bring a lot of happiness to yourself and others
I think one of the most valuable lessons I've learned is to not worry so much about things I can't control. Because its uncontrollable, it makes overthinking useless. It also can take a lot of time away from the day that could have been used for other things.
