Azi Dau

This is me and two of my best friends doing a TikTok baking challenge (Blind, Mute, and Deaf). (The photo was super sudden – no one was prepared.)

My name is Azareen Victoria Dau (I go by Azi) and I’m almost 14 years old. I was born in Washington, D.C. but moved to Richmond, Virginia when I was 6. I’m a rising freshman in the IB Program at Tucker High School. I was also in the IB Program at my middle school.

I was in my school’s yearbook and journalism leadership advisory in 7th and 8th grade. My favorite things to write are opinion, entertainment and news pieces. I’m especially interested in current events because I’m enthusiastic about activism and making a change. In 6th grade I co-began a student advocacy club. We continued it through 8th grade and focused on making smaller changes in our school.

One interesting thing about me is that I love linguistics (the study of languages) and international affairs. I’ve traveled my whole life, discovering my passion for learning about different languages and cultures. I’m actively learning four languages: Persian (I’m Persian), Spanish, French and Greek. I want to keep traveling and learning as much as I can because I think it might be something I want to study in college.

This is a picture of me and my best friend at a Five Below after a sleepover.

This is a picture of my dog, Coco. This was from her first birthday, last year.
