Activity 1 Music: Drum Set Favorite Activity/Experience In the summer of 12th-grade, I got approached by an international client to build an extension that made communication among software developers fast and efficient when working in a collaborative model . He mentioned that he had found me through my LinkedIn and had thought that I was qualified to do the paid job . I was excited to freelance for the first time but also serious since money was involved.

So we spent the next few weeks brainstorming and refining the extension's workflow multiple times, then, finally, it was time for me to start building it.

I went through each step of the process, ranging from prototyping to wire-framing to development , meticulously planning everything, and eventually ended up with the final version after three weeks of

Please enter your first essay. I define a "community builder" not as a position holder or an achiever but rather as someone who is inclusive of everyone around them and is emotionally intelligent and wise. Specifically inclusive of people like me, who are introverted and reserved. One such community builder I have encountered is Laxya, a senior in my high school.

When I first met Laxya, I instinctively adopted a reticent approach. I started talking formally, tried to stay still, and filtered my words. However, with Laxya, this soon changed when he and I won
