Pulse began as an idea during my freshman year in High School. Our goal was to make first aid and healthcare education more accessible to communities across Shanghai. What started as a small group of friends teaching CPR after school has now grown into a citywide medical service club with six international school chapters (BISS, SCIS, WISS, CISS, YCIS), over 600 students trained, and over 50 AHA certified heartsavers.
At its heart, Pulse is about empowerment through knowledge. We focus on first aid, CPR, and public health education, teaching students aged six to sixty the skills to act with confidence and compassion in emergencies.

Qinghai
I founded Pulse because I believed that healthcare literacy shouldn’t begin in adulthood or in medical school but rather in classrooms, homes, and playgrounds, where confidence in saving a life can be learned just as easily as solving an equation. From our first few interactions with the enthusiastic children in rural Qinghai to now, four years later the goal has never changed.
As President, I oversee Pulse’s Shanghai-wide coordination: organizing workshops, managing hospital partnerships, leading certification sessions, and curating our interschool events. I also mentor new chapters at other schools, guiding their officers on training structure, outreach, and community partnerships to ensure every branch grows with sustainability and purpose.

Pulse has become a community where science, empathy, and leadership intersect. Beyond just training, we design outreach campaigns on health awareness during local flu vaccine fairs, help out with Children’s Day community events, host holiday performances for hospital patients, and even assist in teaching first aid to volunteers at Jiahui Hospital. Each experience reinforces our belief that healthcare education isn’t confined to classrooms... it belongs wherever people gather, care, and learn together.
