Hi, my name is Farah and I am in my 3A term of planning! Planning was never something I originally saw myself pursuing, but I have always been intrigued by cities and the way they work. I eventually found my way into planning, and as I progressed through the program, I started discovering where my interests really were. In my second year, I specialized in land use and transportation planning, and since then, I have only become more passionate about the field. The more I learn about planning and the different directions it can take me, the more excited I am about being a part of it! A good cup of coffee! It’s genuinely one of the things I look forward to every morning!!!

Heyo! My name is Elliott, and ever since I was a young boy, I knew I wanted to think about housing development for a living... And then all the other planning stuff came after. After a long day, all I need is a can of monster and a matcha latte to feel reinvigorated. 

Hi, my name is Sumaya and I am in my 1A term of planning! My passion for building structural models that are both functional and appealing played a major role in my decision to pursue planning. I wanted to expand beyond individual designs and understand the systems and layers that allow cities to function, especially how transportation, goods, and communities connect. Outside of this, reading and drawing are also things that instantly make my day better.

Hi! My name is Neil and I am in my 2A term of planning!

One small thing that instantly makes my day better is eating some good comfort food!

Hi! My name is Maryam and I am in my 2A term of planning. I became interested in planning because I’ve always been fascinated by how the places around us shape the way we live, and I hope to help create communities that are walkable and full of character. A small thing that instantly makes my day better is listening to The Beatles. 

Hi! My name is Geoffe and I am in my 3A term of planning. I got into planning because I had a serious addiction to Mini Metro! Aside from that, I also got into planning because I really like subway system map designs, and learning how planning influences people's interactions with the built environment. One small thing that instantly makes my day better is buying bubble tea.
