About Me

I am a freshman at Duke University in the Pratt School of Engineering. My interests outside of the classroom including watching, writing about, and analyzing sports, spending time with friends, and eating a variety of food. This fall, I am taking a Writing 101 course on Public Speaking and Ted Talks that requires me to step outside my comfort zone (and my otherwise-STEM-filed-schedule).
