Chelsea Chi (VA, US)
I am a senior at The Madeira School and serve as ACUVA's social media lead, where I focus on raising awareness through our Facebook platform. I am passionate about connecting with others and using social media to amplify ACUVA’s mission. Outside of my role at ACUVA, I enjoy fencing, dancing, and socializing with others, all of which inspire my passion and commitment. Being part of ACUVA has led to incredible opportunities to engage with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I am eager to continue my journey with this organization by building meaningful connections and contributing to future projects.

Max Chi (TN, US)
I am a senior at Lausanne Collegiate School. During my free time, I enjoy playing piano, drawing, and running. I am a researcher under ACUVA and have helped publish 6 articles, and also manage ACUVA’s Instagram platform and am organizing events for ACUVA such as a walk with the Walk to End Alzheimer’s Organization. Furthermore, I play piano at Quail Ridge Memory Care to share music with the elderly. All of this is done to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s, support those who struggle with it, and to show support for ACUVA from the Chinese-American community. I look forward to contributing even more in the future.

Sophia Zhao (OK, US)
I am a senior at Norman North High School. I’ve worked with ACUVA as a volunteer for two years now, promoting events in the Oklahoma region. Outside of ACUVA, I play volleyball for my school and am part of the school orchestra. I’m looking forward to contributing to this organization and continuing to help in the future.

Evan Sun (CO, US)
I am a sophomore at Cherry Creek High School. I'm a Website Manager at ACUVA, where I help keep our website up to date. When I'm not working on the site, you'll probably find me fencing or playing volleyball. I'm also a big fan of chess, and I enjoy solving puzzles and challenges in my free time. Whether it's coding, sports, or a good chess match, I'm always up for something that gets me thinking and moving!

Katherine Ning (CO, US)
I’m a sophomore at Cherry Creek High School. I help initiate and host events with ACUVA, manage the website, and make posters, programs, flyers, etc. I enjoy volunteering and building community connections as well as just simply making people smile. Outside of ACUVA, I love dancing, clarinet, debating, skiing, and spending time with my friends, family, and pets. I’m a creative and inquisitive person who looks forward to getting more involved with ACUVA.

Jiarui Zhang (Qingdao, China)
I am a senior at Wasatch Academy Qingdao Campus. Since elementary school, I have enjoyed playing tennis and engineering. It’s a kind of pleasure to volunteer in ACUVA. My part of the job is to translate any forms of information from English to Chinese and to publicize our missions in China. This could let more people in China know of ACUVA, and more people will get help. I’m looking forward to contributing more in the future.

Elise Zhang (CO, US)
I’m a sophomore at Cherry Creek High School and have been volunteering with ACUVA for the past year. I’ve truly valued the sense of community the program fosters and the awareness it brings to important causes. Outside of ACUVA, I enjoy playing the violin, dancing, skiing, and spending time with my loved ones. I look forward to continuing my involvement with ACUVA and contributing even more in the future.

Josh Liu (CO, US)
I am a freshman at Cheery Creek High School. The role I play as volunteer for ACUVA is to create videos and post on ACUVA's YouTube channel showing our volunteering events to promote and spread awareness of ACUVA. Additionally, I enjoy building things, drawing, painting, and playing the music instruments. I am glad to be part of the ACUVA youth volunteer team!
