Svay Chan Krisna (Academic Year 2025-2026) – TREASURE EVERY MOMMENT
Favorite Quote: “A smile is your friend – and also your best weapon. Show a friendly face, and your enemy will be so charmed, it’ll never know what hit em.”-Meg Cabot
An interesting fact about Krisna is that he has a white cat. He also plays the piano, goes to the gym, and loves playing basketball.
His favorite subjects are Physics and Calculus because problem-solving motivates him and makes him determined to find the answers. The most challenging assignment for him was the STEAM Expo, since he had never done a project like that before. It was both challenging and exciting, as it gave him a chance to experience the kind of work engineers do. He believes that Calculus and Physics will prepare him the most for life after high school because they help him understand how engineers shape the world and inspire him to think about how he might shape the world in the future.
Outside of school, Krisna has participated in community service, which showed him the value and enjoyment of working together to help others. It also reminded him that the small things in life truly matter. His most memorable moment at AUPPHS-FA was playing basketball in 10th grade with his friends, which made that time especially fun and memorable for him.
After graduating from AUPPHS-FA, Krisna plans to attend university, possibly abroad, to continue his education in a field related to engineering. Her advice to juniors at AUPPHS-FA: “You are allowed to hate or not like a specific class, maybe its because you are bad at it or it doesn’t benefit you in any way in the future. But still, you should try your best, so that you don’t leave any regrets.”
