Hometown: New York City, NY

Anticipated Major: Computer Science

Anticipated Minor: Artificial Intelligence, Fine Arts

For me, growing up in New York City is synonymous with growing up in museums. As a child, I was constantly exposed to art of all kinds, and today, it still has a great influence over me. I also had a passion for math growing up, as the patterns and puzzles forced me to think. When I started getting older, people would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I never knew how to answer, because while I loved drawing, I was also fascinated with mathematics. Now, I know a future with both is possible. The interdisciplinary nature of the Milstein Program is what sparked my interest. As someone who grew up with imagination and logic, seeing an opportunity where I can utilize both methods of thinking inspires me greatly. The combination of seemingly unrelated fields is where the most innovative creations come to be, and I want to be at the forefront of that. I'm not just a computer science major; I'm also an artist. In my free time, I love viewing and creating art, playing video games, and thrifting with friends.
