From Curiosity to Community Impact

• 140+ kids coached to solve Rubik's cube  over 5 years.
• $6000 + raised in 3 years to support non profit organization. Enabled 250 kids get education for a year through fundraised. 

 What began as a personal challenge to solve a Rubik’s Cube evolved into a rewarding journey of growth, competition, and community contribution. Initially self-taught through trial, error, and online tutorials, I mastered the mechanics of cube solving, developing pattern recognition, problem-solving skills, and mental agility. 

 With each twist and turn, I grew more confident and eventually began competing in local and regional cube-solving tournaments, where speed, focus, and strategy earned me recognition and sharpened my technical precision. My personal best at interstate championship was 27 seconds in solving 3x3 cube. 

Driven by a passion to share my skills, in 5th grade I began hosting workshops and hands-on classes for kids—turning a simple puzzle into a tool for teaching patience, focus, and logical thinking. The joy I found in teaching motivated me to expand my impact by partnering with a nonprofit organization, where I helped lead fundraising campaigns that blended education with community service. Through Rubik’s Cube sessions and other events, I raised over $5000 to support underserved communities, showing that even a small puzzle can spark meaningful change. From personal growth to inspiring others, my journey with the Rubik’s Cube continues to reveal new possibilities—one layer at a time.
