About Me

I am currently an undergraduate in the Class of 2025 in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I come from New Jersey, like everyone else it seems, which is where I have lived my whole life.

Hobbies

I grew up playing all different sports, but played soccer and lacrosse in high school. I also like to go to the beach with my friends and play spikeball. I love watching sports as well, especially college football and college basketball, mainly because I was unlucky enough to grow up as a New York Jets fan!

Current Courses

I am taking the following classes:

  • EGR101
  • EGR103
  • EOS102
  • MATH218-D2

Goals

Duke has been my dream school ever since I became a Duke Basketball fan. Coming into Duke, I had a couple goals for myself. First, and most importantly was to graduate with a degree. I also wanted to make sure I enjoyed my time at Duke and make as many strong relationships as I could. Besides that, tenting in Kryzewskiville and attending a Duke vs. UNC game is something that I need to do at some point in my 4 years at Duke. It would be really nice this year, but it may be especially difficult, given that it is Coach K's final season as the head coach of the team.
