Yinkai Gao

Lights

My name is Yinkai Gao, and I’m a passionate student with strong interests in music, STEM, and community service.

As a violinist, I’ve performed at the 2022 Midwest Clinic, the 2024 TMEA Honor Orchestra, and the Texas All-Region Orchestra Symphony group, experiences that have strengthened my discipline, collaboration, and appreciation for the arts.

Academically, I’ve placed first in the AMC10 at Austin High School and won first place in UIL Computer Science, while also advancing to the USACO Silver League. I’ve been studying Java, Python, JavaScript, and HTML since 4th grade, and I’m dedicated to using technology and creative problem-solving to make a meaningful impact.

I’m proud to support BestBridgeToHeart and its mission to expand educational opportunities and empower students from under-resourced communities.
