WPI has a small tight-knit community where it is easy to connect with others and obtain help from professors. I chose to come to WPI because of the people! Everyone is so kind & joyful here :) I became a tour guide my freshman year to show people what I saw in WPI when I made my decision. In the first part of my experiences at WPI, I was in the Ballroom Dance Team & Meditation Club! In my late sophomore year, I transitioned into research and leadership roles in the lab and in our Career Development Center! This past summer, I had the incredible opportunity to complete an internship at Dana Farber Cancer Institute and work on cancer research! Finally, this year for my interactive qualifying project, I will be traveling to Ghana!
