Candidacy for Sports Leader House Captain
I ran for the position of Sports Leader House Captain, I had to step out of my comfort zone to speak in front of my peers and campaign for their votes. Although I didn’t win, the experience was incredibly meaningful. It pushed me to communicate more confidently, present my ideas clearly, and connect with people from different backgrounds. I learned how to carry myself with resilience and optimism, even in the face of disappointment. The skills I had learnt continued to shape the way I express myself and take initiative until today.

Entrepreneurship Program
Took part in this entrepreneurship programme (started by Halogen x The Salvation Army) during the June school holidays, where I independently developed and pitched a product idea. My solo project earned 2nd place. The product was an eco-friendly, talc-free powdered spray designed to absorb moisture on the skin, ideal for Singapore’s hot and humid weather.
Through this experience, I learned how to effectively communicate ideas, understand target audiences, and pitch with clarity and confidence.link to slides used: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ZdtbfzQ-97mkDJVyIcKHrdV_4b_jH_mu/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=106072514541320577335&rtpof=true&sd=true

Presentation on Gender Equality and Government.
Delivered a speech addressing the importance of gender equality and its role in good governance. I explored how inclusive leadership leads to stronger, fairer societies, and highlighted the need for equal representation and opportunities in decision-making spaces. I also discussed how media subtly shapes gender stereotypes, influencing public perception and reinforcing societal biases
