Hi! I am involved in WPI's Green Team bikeshare committee, Gompei's Gears; I am a NEISA TIDE Rep for our sailing and racing club; and I am an RA this year. This summer I went to WPI's Buenos Aires project center to complete my HUA capstone. There I studied at the University of San Andrés and stayed with a homestay. Please reach out if you would like to know more about the experiences and opportunities I have with WPI!
Gompei's Gears Bikeshare Committee
In this picture I am standing by one of the many green bikeshare bike racks around campus. We have been working hard to rejuvenate our student-led bikeshare system throughout the past year. I helped design the signs and logos on our fleet of 30 new bikes!
Sailing Club NEISA TIDE Representative
In September we competed in Harvard's Charles Invitational. I am in a 420 (boat #17) in this picture! As NEISA Tide representative, I attend TIDE meetings and help promote diversity in college sailing within our team.
HUA Capstone in Argentina
This July I went to Argentina for my HUA capstone with WPI. We are at the Iguazú Falls in this picture. It was breathtaking!
RA 2023-2024
This year I am an RA in WPI's South Village. This photo is from move-in day, where I met most of my residents!
Crimson Key Tour Guide
I have really enjoyed being a Crimson Key Tour Guide! The Admissions team is very supportive and my coworkers are very kind and a group of extremely involved and interesting people. I always learn something when I hang out with them!
Content Development Team for Universal Education Initiative
I started working with the Universal Education Initiative this summer on the content development of an Intro to Computer Science course.
