Hi, I am Shraddha! Sustainability has been something that motivates me to instigate change in my local and global community. Nature and wildlife are somethings I consider worth preserving world-wide. I am an active leader at Cen10Green, a sustainability-focused club based in my high school. I also partake in volunteer activities with environmental organizations such as Teens4Green and The Urban Garden Initiative. I have always been intrigued by buildings and their creative potential. With architecture being my career interest, I strive to embed eco-friendly ideologies  to make sustainability a norm rather than a trend. As a firm believer in "dipping one's feet" in unfamiliar waters, I enjoy trying new activities, hobbies, and learning about new subjects to expand my knowledge. I am passionate about Indian Classical Dance, which I have been practicing for more than 10 years. Additionally, I love Bollywood and many other forms of dance which motivate me to perform and teach. With sports, such as tennis, also being an important aspect of my life, I continue to compete and practice outside of school. My developing creative mindset and team spirit serves as a motivating factor to pursue architecture with a sustainability emphasis.
