I am currently an active member of Active Minds at UTD, a student organization dedicated to mental health advocacy. This involvement is directly relevant because I’m already comfortable discussing mental wellness with my peers and navigating campus policies for event promotion. My experience with the club gives me a built-in network to coordinate the download competitions and ensures I know the best, approved locations to place reminder cards for maximum visibility.

Absolutely. In the past, when school stress peaked, I tended to shut down rather than communicate. However, I’ve learned that taking a moment for mental fitness just a quick reset helps me clear that fog. It’s made me realize that communication is a skill that requires a calm mind, which is a message I want to share with other students.

I care about mental health because I know that small habits lead to big changes. I’m drawn to Inner Journey’s mission of making mental fitness simple and fun. I want to help my fellow students move away from 'burnout culture' by promoting practical tools and reminder cards that encourage them to take a breath and find clarity.
