Involvements:

Greek Life

I've been in Lambda Chi Alpha since freshman year and it has had a very positive impact in my time at WPI. I've found my family here and I'm very happy to be living in the house this year.

Great Problems Seminar: Shelter the World

This is me during poster presentation day last year! My team and I developed a housing solution for Venezuelan migrants in Peru. This was a subject important to me and a problem I witnessed every day while living in Peru. My team won the best poster presentation for our class and I'm glad to be a Peer Learning Assistant for the same class this year.

Community Advisor

This year I'm a Community Advisor (CA) for Messenger Hall and I love it. The community of CAs in itself is great and has given me a lot of new great friends. The job is very rewarding as you get to guide new students in their journeys of adapting to the school. It's been great connecting with new students and serving as a resource for them on campus. I'm definitely applying to be a CA again next year!
