Alice Chen
My name is Alice Chen and my pronoun is she/her. I am going to be a Junior at Brooklyn Technical High School. Some of my hobbies include ballet, dance, Chinese pop, and drawing. One of my favorite food is noodles and I really like the color pink. I hate apples, pears, and watermelons. I am currently in the architecture major at BTHS and I would like to see what the architecture career is like before choosing my major in college. One of the biggest messages that I tell myself whenever I feel sad or stressed is that the rainbow is always after a huge rainstorm so no matter how big your obstacle is, there will always be a way to overcome it! I hope to become someone that I am proud of with the capability of achieving my own goals. I can’t wait to work with the other members of Wonderful HomeMakers to create a better living environment for others.

Hii! My name is Maham and I am a rising junior at Midwood High School's Humanities program.
I go by the pronouns she/her and some of my hobbies include reading, crafting jewelry, writing poetry, volunteering, and hanging out with my friends.
I spent lots of time on social media and believe that is a great method of spreading the word about our organization and gaining more donors, as well as volunteers to help out our community meaningfully.
One of the many reasons I took a liking to this program is it incorporates all of the things I love to do in a fun yet helpful way for the community and I aspire to do the same in my future career path.
I believe that Wonderful Homemakers will serve as a great opportunity to help our community while also meeting and bonding with new people!

Musharrof Hossain
Hi, my name is Musharrof Hossain and I am a rising senior at Brooklyn Technical High School.
I am an individual who has a deep appreciation for history, as it provides me with a deep understanding of myself and the world around me. Exploring the past allows me to gain insights into different cultures, societies, and events, enhancing my perspective toward others.
In addition to my passion for history, I am drawn to the field of environmental science. I recognize the pressing environmental issues that my generation and future generations will face, and I want to help by any means to make a positive impact on this major crisis.
Furthermore, journalism holds a special place in my heart. I believe in the power of information and the ability of journalism to educate and empower individuals to create meaningful change.
By raising awareness and giving a voice to the voiceless, I aim to inspire action and create change.
I am also really into sports, especially basketball. I am a big fan of the Denver Nuggets (A Basketball Organization). I love to watch Jokic’s amazing passes and how he can masterfully control a basketball game.
