Tomas Rojas-Sosto

I provided tutoring to sophomores and freshmen in AC Algebra 2 through one on one tutoring sessions after school.

Co-led a student initiative organizing 6 donation drives, including 1 clothing drive, 1 toy drive, and 4 food drives, coordinating 3–4 hours per drive to redistribute essential goods to underprivileged families and increase school-wide participation in community support efforts.

I helped organize club meetings focused on financial paths, investment strategies, and helped recruit new members. Helped organize meetings and activities to introduce students to the basics of finance.

I run a pressure washing business in my neighborhood providing driveway cleaning services. I did this for approximately 80 hours and scaled the business from two people and one pressure washing machine to three people and three machines to meet increased demand. Cleaned 40 driveways.

I raised awareness for tennis ball recycling initiatives. Connected local clubs with the organization to help distribute and collect recycling materials. Reached out to local tennis clubs in the Houston area to promote ball recycling with Tennis Ball Recycle. Got various clubs to sign and continue to provide support for the process of sending balls to recycling centers.

Learned basics of real estate development, design, construction, marketing and sales. Assisted with budgeting on the construction and contractor development. Worked on detailed estimates and takeoffs for two custom homes.

I participated in one on one intellectual discussions with other students around the world to discuss pressing topics about the world. I had meaningful discussions about the different economies of different countries, and what the government should do in order to better the economy.

I teach math and English to underprivileged kids who lack structured education in a church where we meet. Provided one on one tutoring and to small groups to enhance their ability to do better at school.

Assist with food distribution, inventory organization, merchandise sales, and traffic coordination to support families accessing essential resources.
