TEJUS BHASIN
Student at Horace Mann, Class of 2032
About Me
I'm a natural-born leader with a drive for success and creating change in the community around me. I love being creative and applying logic to everyday tasks. I like to tinker around with code, build online platforms, and dive into tech-related areas. I have experience in coding, digital modeling, website and app fabrication, AI leverage, and am active in math and science. Additionally, I want to be a pilot when I grow up. I find aerodynamics interesting, as well as airplanes in general.
I have a passion for parliamentary debate and represent my school in our debate team. I do fencing and play the drums, as well as participate in a variety of after-school clubs and activities. I also love reading and making creative things to simplify everyday life. I have founded a Pokémon club, been elected for the student council 2 times, have led a petition that was heard and implemented by the city council, won numerous debate awards, and much more. Alongside that, I also love photography and image editing. My hobbies when I’m not focusing on academics or extracurriculars include reading, collecting and researching airplanes, and playing speedminton for fun with my family.
