Hi there! I’m Aisulu, an explorer of worlds both microscopic and digital. As a senior student at Kazakhstan International School, I’m diving deep into the IB Diploma Programme, where I juggle TOK reflections and Extended Essays while staying glued to my lab experiments and coding projects.

I’ve always believed that curiosity is the best compass, which is why I’m charting a path into Microbiology and Data Science, where algorithms feel like magic spells for solving real-world puzzles.

But life’s not all about books and research. I’m also passionate about empowering others. I founded Estyin Kerek, Kazakhstan’s first online mental health community in Kazakh, offering resources, podcasts, and support to teenagers navigating life’s ups and downs. With over 1,600 podcast views and a growing community of 300+ active users, I’m proud of how far we’ve come in normalizing mental health conversations.

So why Microbiology and Data Science, you ask? These fields combine everything I love: understanding how tiny things make a big impact and harnessing technology to create smarter solutions for a better world.
