Academic areas of interest

I have always loved the theoretical side of Math and Physics, so I am hoping to major in Mathematics in the College of Arts and Sciences. However, I have growing interests in the social impact the Arts on society. I hope to do research in any of these areas.

Activities & Hobbies

I enjoy choreography and exploring contemporary performance art. Also, I am really passionate about social justice issues, especially gender-based violence and discrimination and I am excited to continue learning about it. I love jazz, playing the drums and trumpet, and music production. But most importantly, I love playing video games and tennis from time to time.

Future Plans

There are a range of possibilities that interest me. For instance, I plan to do a master’s degree in one of my prospective academic fields and use my basis in research to identify a certain issue or problem that I will work on. I also plan to create and mount a few performances of my own that create awareness for inequity in society. Essentially, although my path is not definite, I plan to continue my exploring my passions through research.
