Academic areas of interest

I am planning on majoring in Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics. I have always been interested in the complexities of tech within the business management field.

Activities & Hobbies

I love playing badminton and going to Pottruck to explore new fitness methods. I cannot wait to represent Penn in badminton for the next 4 years! Besides sports, I have always been keen on civic engagement and Model UN. At Penn I want to continue exploring how I can stay in touch with the community in Philly.

Future Plans

I have always seen myself going into leadership and I strongly believe in sustainable urbanization and modernization. Hence, I plan to pursue an MBA after my bachelor’s degree to learn management and economics within the STEM field to better understand the impacts on technology in our face-paced world and to innovate sustainably to ease human lives. I want to make technology more accessible to people regardless of their socioeconomic, racial, and geographical backgrounds.
