Jade S. is thrilled to be a part of The Zen Ten and is excited to participate in the Girls Build Los Angeles program for her second year of middle school. Jade is one of three 7th graders on the team and is a web designer along with her teammate, India Clark. She wanted to compete, once again, because she felt like she could've accomplished more that what she had done in the previous year. Jade's main goal as part of The Zen Ten is to create an environment for kids who don't know how to cope with stress, something that she wished for when she was younger. Some of Jade's hobbies include reading, playing the ukulele, and writing fictional stories of her own. Currently, she plays on her school’s middle school volleyball and is part of the swim team. Another one of her interests is art, and though she knows that she’s no Claude Monet, but she hopes to improve. When she graduates from high school, Jade hopes to follow the path to become a biomedical engineer.
