Anna is a 18 year old activist, speaker, and innovator, striving to change the field of EDUCATION. She has a strong mission to impact economic development and growth through the power of education–both the accessibility and quality.
In 2019, she taught English at an elementary school in Kampong Speu Province, Cambodia. This experience changed her life. She’ll never forget the children’s passion for learning despite inadequate resources. Realizing that access to education isn’t universally guaranteed, she felt a strong responsibility to help address these disparities.
But she is more than that. Anna actively creates change herself, through founding her organization, For Every Child an Education at 15, or through conducting research published at IYRC and ACUNS.
Anna immerses herself in the arts, exploring the realm of creativity and innovation. She started to play the piano at age 5, and has made her Carnegie Debut in the age of 8. Her second Carnegie Performance was on March 2025, ten years after her debut, where she performed Fantaisie Impromptu as a First Place winner in the Golden Classical Music Competition. She also choreographs dances, and is a dancer herself, ranging from hiphop, jazz, contemporary and ballet.
