Michelle is currently a sophomore at Menlo-Atherton High School. She is passionate about Curieus and its mission because growing up, she lived in various communities and noticed that people from these different communities were given unequal opportunities. Michelle also noticed this trend at her high school, where she currently takes AP Computer Science and Honors Chemistry. Outside of school, she is passionate about working with children and helping them to reach their highest potential. Michelle tutors elementary school children from her local Boys and Girls Club and volunteers at her dance studio. Also, Michelle is a competitive dancer who trains in ballet, contemporary, lyrical, and jazz for over twenty hours each week.
