“As a man of colour whose success was fostered in my community, I have a duty to ensure our narratives are never forgotten.”
See how Alferos is using Apple technology to drive impactful policy change and help combat discrimination and digital insecurity in higher education.
Isaac uses iPhone 13 with FaceTime to stay connected with leaders, students and family while travelling as CSU’s student body president.
Isaac Alferos
Studied Business Administration/Finance,
California State University, Fullerton, class of 2022
President, California State University Student Association, 2021–2022
“I’m doing so many things. My devices can’t fail. They can’t be a limiting factor. I love the flexibility of Apple devices, and how dependable they are, wherever I am.”
As a recent Business graduate of California State University, Fullerton, Isaac Alferos has tirelessly engaged as a digital equity advocate and activist in higher education — and he’s made real change across California and beyond.
As one of the few African and Asian Americans in his school, Isaac experienced systemic racism early on. “My teachers disciplined me harder — I was always perceived as being disruptive. I learnt to reject what I was in favour of performing what they wanted me to be.”
At CSU Fullerton, Isaac joined the Male Success Initiative, where men of colour are empowered to achieve their potential. Feeling “at home” for the first time, it inspired him to advocate for an accessible, inclusive future in education through policy change.
For the past year, Isaac has served as president of the Cal State Student Association and was recognised by the California State Legislature as the official representative of 480,000 students across all 23 CSU campuses. He’s chosen Apple technology to power every step of his work, from the lecture hall to city hall.
Notes on iPad with Apple Pencil supports every aspect of his civic engagement with board members and campus leaders, as well as his research work. “iPad is my Swiss Army Knife — it works for all situations, and seamlessly with my Mac and iPhone to support my full calendar of activities.”
For academic work, Isaac uses Mac with RStudio to crunch data sets and conduct research for his successful proposals — like writing state-wide legislation that makes it easier for low-income students to apply to university with a single, universal application.
iPad also enables his creativity and helps “humanise what leadership looks like, by making it personal”. Through the Black + Brown Healing Project, an organisation he founded to support Black, Indigenous and people of colour (BIPOC) writers and creatives, he wrote a book of poetry capturing his experiences as a Black queer man — all on iPad.
The foundation of leadership and productivity that Isaac has built as an undergraduate will continue to serve as a springboard for his commitment to social justice. And he’s just getting started.

“As an aspiring teacher and visual learner, my goal is to make learning fun, creative and inclusive.”
See how Secondary Education and Arts student Hannah uses Apple technology to be her most creative self — as an artist and future teacher.
Hannah Pengilly
Studying Secondary Education and Arts
University of Canberra, Australia, class of 2024
“With iPad and Mac, it’s so easy
to bring my lessons and creative
ideas to life.”
Hannah Pengilly is working on a double degree, studying both of her passions — art and education. She dreams of being an educator and is already pursuing a career as a digital artist, with work that is loved by millions on TikTok. Growing up home-schooled, Hannah found that hands-on, personalised learning was the best way to support learners like herself — something she aims to bring into her own classroom in the future.
Hannah is passionate about helping others express themselves creatively and learn in ways that work best for them. Apple technology helps her do that. With iPad, iPhone and Mac, Hannah makes and shares her art with the world, brings innovation to her practice as a student-teacher and elevates her schoolwork.
“I love designing with iPad and Apple Pencil. It pushes me to experiment and create in whole new ways at the highest level. I can create anything that I dream up.”
iPad and Apple Pencil have been part of Hannah’s artistic toolbox for many years. With these tools, Hannah creates original drawings and animations using ProCreate. “It’s the ideal canvas for drawing and experimenting with different techniques,” she says. For Hannah, Apple Pencil becomes a paintbrush with unlimited potential to play with colour and texture. She shares her process with her 4M social media followers to spark imagination and encourage others to express themselves creatively.
Hannah easily combines her love of art with her student-teaching studies. On iPad with Apple Pencil, she designs student worksheets with multimedia content to appeal to different learning styles. For her assignments, she visually represents ideas by taking photos on iPhone and creating sketches on iPad, then uses AirDrop to send them to her Mac for editing. Her personalised digital workflows help her to develop content that inspires students to learn and teachers to teach.
Hannah’s mission is to make an impact in the lives of others — whether it’s through sharing her artistic practice or creating lesson plans that make learning more inclusive. With iPad, Mac and iPhone, she delivers on that promise.
“I want to use all my skills and creativity to set students up for success, no matter how they learn,” she says. “I’m driven by helping people, doing good in the world and living an extraordinary life.”

Turn ideas into apps with Swift.
Swift is a coding language that’s easy to learn and used by developers everywhere. And no matter your level, Apple has resources to help you advance your coding skills.
“Apple technology allows me to fulfil my dreams, whether it’s mentoring other students or creating apps that can improve people’s lives.”
See how self-taught app developer and Mathematics student Zoey is using Swift and Apple technology to honour her Vietnamese heritage.
Nguyen “Zoey” Vu
Studying Mathematics
University of Waterloo, Canada, class of 2024
“I use Swift because it’s the industry standard — it’s also easy and accessible, even for students.”
At 17, Zoey Vu found herself in a new country, learning a new language and working various part-time jobs. Ontario, Canada was very different from her home town of Tân Phú in rural Vietnam. But the change in scenery allowed for new opportunities. In her first month in Canada, Zoey attended a robotics conference — and it was there that her fascination with technology and app development was sparked.
Zoey’s dream of helping her family and community back home is at the core of everything she does. And as she dived into the world of creating apps, she discovered a path that could help her realise this dream. One of the major keys to Zoey’s journey in tech? Apple. Through the Develop in Swift books and the Swift online community, Zoey taught herself how to code.
“Apple is the industry standard for developers,” says Zoey. “At the same time, the tools Apple creates for developers make it really easy for students like me to learn. Swift is the most intuitive, smooth and easy-to-use platform in the industry. And there are so many resources available to help you create any app you can dream up.”
Dreaming up amazing apps is exactly what Zoey did. Inspiration struck her in maths class, while learning about the Flocking Algorithm — a computational model inspired by behaviours observed in nature.
“I was missing home so much, and I would remember how my brother and I would sit together and look out at the sunset and watch the birds flocking back to their homes.”
And with that, Birds of a Feather was born — an app she created using Xcode on Mac that simulates the flocking algorithm of birds and encourages children to learn through play. It won Zoey a Swift Student Challenge award in 2023 — an inspiring experience that led her to new connections in the iOS community.
With several internships at major tech companies under her belt, Zoey remains focused on paying it forwards as her budding career takes off. Using her iPhone and Mac — with Calendar, Notes and iCloud to keep her busy life organised — she leads a mentorship programme that helps Vietnamese computer science students in Canada and the US find internships and scholarships in the app development industry. And she still has big plans for those back in Tân Phú.
“My dream is to build an app that will help improve the lives of the people in my home town. It could be something that helps workers be safer, or an app that connects people to jobs or educational opportunities. Some way to help my family and community — that’s what I’m trying to do.”
