Hi, I’m Kaiyuan Nan — a dedicated student, mentor, and community leader committed to helping young people reach their highest potential.
I recently graduated as Salutatorian of the Health and Science Magnet Program at John B. Alexander High School, ranked 2nd out of 749 students, with a perfect 4.0 GPA, a 1570 SAT, and a Distinguished Level of Achievement. I also completed Laredo College’s Dual Enrollment Program and will soon be attending Rice University to continue my education at one of the nation’s top institutions.
My academic journey has always been balanced with a drive to give back. I co-founded the First Sports Fund of Laredo, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has raised over $100,000 to provide clothes, sports equipment, and resources to more than 500 people across diverse communities.
In addition to leading on the tennis court as Varsity Captain, I worked as an SAT and calculus tutor for over 30 students, managed a tutoring team, and partner with college counselors to support students aiming for top scores. My experience also extends into healthcare — from shadowing at The Children’s Clinic to assisting with diabetes and liver fibrosis research at the University of Texas Health Science Center under renowned physicians.
I’m fluent in English and Chinese, proficient in Spanish, and certified as a CPR Instructor, Dental Assistant, and Medical Assistant — tools I use to bridge communication gaps and expand opportunities for others.
In the DMG College Prep Program, I’ll be showing students how to strategically approach academics, testing, and extracurriculars — so they can secure scholarships, gain admission to competitive programs, and stand out in the college admissions process.
