Xiya S. ’26

I chose to become an Ambassador because I love meeting new people and engaging in conversation. I’ve been at Poly my entire life, so I feel well-qualified to share my knowledge and experiences with anyone who asks. I want to help each student find the right path for them and discover their passions. I aim to be someone others feel comfortable approaching for advice or even just to chat. I hope that, throughout my time as an Ambassador and now on the council, I can achieve these goals and continue building relationships within my community.

My favorite spot on campus is Boswell, the school’s art building. I particularly like the room at the farthest end of the building, which has an eastern wall made of window panes and wooden pillars. It also has a great patio with a view of Arden Lawn. I’ve spent a lot of my time painting and drawing in Bowell studio.
