Sophia Lee
Quest Participant 2003, Staff Member 2005

Hometown: Cupertino, CA School: Stanford
Major: English, Political Science

Emigrating from Korea at an early age, Sophia has developed a sense of personal responsibility through serving as a bridge between her parents and the Western culture. This role instilled in her much willpower and taught her the importance of family. An incoming sophomore at Stanford University, she is dedicated not only to scholastic pursuits, but is also active in altruistic endeavors. Through her parents' guidance and support from her church, Sophia has participated in several overseas mission trips. She has co-founded several youth-led organizations, including MELODY, a local project that provides music education to low-income children. Yearning for self-discovery, Sophia passionately pursues the violin and further expresses herself through writing. Keenly interested in the academic fields of English and political science, Sophia aspires to attend law school in the future and work with advocating international human rights.
