Since my major is Financial Mathematics, I am involved in the acturial club where I attend lectures by professors in the acturoal field and learn software in the acturial field, such as the R language. At the same time, I met students and professors in the same filed.

This is a club to explore the intersection of arts and business within the entertainment industry. As a member of this club, I have learned a lot about the commercialization of music, the film industry, and many other fields. Also, based on my interest in K-pop, I lectured on the commercialization of K-pop in the United States.

Waseda University's Summer Session is a six-week program held in Tokyo, Japan. I took "Dynamic and Innovation in the Japanese Retail Market" and Japanese Popular Culture: Globalization, Cultural Production/Consumer and Creative Ecology" during the session.

As a member, I was involved in planning the sex education science classroom. I was also involved in contacting sanitary production companies to provide as many girls as possible with good-quality sanitary pads at the cheapest prices.

As a developing country, China is relatively backward in terms of educational resources in many areas. This organization provides these areas with free English teaching while at the same time giving participants a better understanding of the scarcity of education. In this volunteer program, I organized a team with my classmates, and I was in charge of the teaching portion of this program, providing free English instruction to families in backward areas of China.
