🌎 Hey there!

I'm Roderick Liu

I am a current high school senior at Flintridge Prep in La Cañada, CA interested in communicating ideas and spearheading conversations across difficult cultures.

Nice to meet you.

I'm a current high school senior at Flintridge Prep and the proud son of two immigrant parents. As a California native, I'm passionate about communication and its different forms across cultures. Whether it be the written word, an oral presentation, subconscious body language, or even the objects and tools we use every day, I believe that everything around us can be used to communicate complex ideas and connect people in different ways. I'm excited to explore these different avenues of communication and utilize them to advocate for others.

​

At school, you'll find me drafting this year's Yearbook, warming up with the hip-hop dance team, organizing the school's prom dance, and singing in the choir. I have a ton of interests and am always eager to explore new things!

Projects and Interests

2022-2023

Abode Homeware

Communications Intern

I worked with Abode's marketing team to research how camera angles, color palettes, and editing styles can communicate different messages to Abode's consumer base, and ultimately helped design marketing material for the company. Check out my thesis detailing my work here!

2020-Present

CareMission USA

Cookie Specialist

I currently volunteer my baking skills to regularly bake nutritious cookies for the local homeless population in downtown Los Angeles. Working with the CareMission team has been a great way for me to leverage a lifelong hobby of mine to help the less fortunate.

2020-2021

Pippin Musical

Actor

I played the role of “Theo” in the musical “Pippin” at the Lineage Performing Arts Center in Pasadena to raise money for Parkinsons' research and advocacy.

2020-2021

Union Station

Volunteer

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, I volunteered with the local Union Station Homeless Services nonprofit to package and distribute face masks and sanitary supplies to the homeless and underserved communities in Los Angeles.

2020-Present

Varsity Volleyball

Athlete

I have been a member of Flintridge Prep's men's varsity volleyball team throughout high school. I was awarded the Prep League Boys Volleyball All League 2023 Second Team Award and have competed in multiple CIF state matches.

2020-Present

Tea Around the World

President

During my freshman year, I aspired to create my own club with my own interests. Drinking tea makes you feel relaxed, and I want to spread this around campus because students at Prep are consistently stressed. I have and am planning to host more fundraisers for the local food banks in the LA Area.

Snapshots

This is my club Tea Around the World, the re-branded Par-Tea Club.  I'm honored that I am one of the most attended clubs on campus. I've hosted fundraisers and provided special drinks each meeting!
