About Me

My name is Broderick Turner, and I am a freshman student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I am from Eufaula, Alabama, a small city that I am sure you have never heard of. My current goal is to obtain a major in Biomedical Engineering with a possible minor in either Psychology or Spanish.

Hobbies

In my spare time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, spending time with family, and listening to music. I also enjoy playing and watching sports, my favorite of which being basketball. During the course of my education at Duke, I am hoping to develop a strong liking for studying and working, which would make obtaining my degree much easier and more enjoyable.

Musical Interests

Musically, I will listen to anything once. My favorite genre would be Rap & Hip-Hop, where some of my favorite artists are Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Blu, Kendrick Lamar, OutKast, XV, Jay-Z, Lauryn Hill, and J. Cole. I also enjoy R&B, folk, rock, pop, and electronic music. Basically, I like anything that sounds good. I have not, however, been able to fully enjoy the genres of country and metal, but maybe one day I will develop an ear for it.

Interesting Facts

• During the course of my entire education, I have never missed a day of school (field trips not counting as missing school).
• I can wiggle my left year, and at moments of peak brain activity, my right ear can move a little bit also.
• I have twelve aunts and uncles, but I only have one sister. I guess my parents did not enjoy having so many siblings around so they kept me from living through the same conditions...that is just me speculating though.
• I visited zero campuses during the time of college applications. Fortunately, Duke turned out to be great once I first stepped on campus during Orientation Week.
