A Bit About Me
After struggling to choose between a liberal arts or science education, I had the ambition to pursue a dual degree in chemistry and international studies. This decision reflects my biggest strengths: a strong sense of self-motivation, an ability to excel in different roles, and a passion to go beyond what is expected.
​
My interests, academic pursuits, and leadership roles can be traced back to one common thread of a love for interdisciplinary learning. My varied academic interests and goals have drawn me to leadership roles within diverse communities, including the Honors community, research community, and Phi Beta Kappa society. These roles reflect my passion to give back to the communities that have shaped me into the ambitious and outspoken leader I am today. I strive to surround myself with leaders from different disciplines and backgrounds to challenge my conventions and beliefs; I intend to do the same for the communities I am a part of.
