About Me
I'm from Cary, North Carolina, which is a town about twenty minutes away from Duke's campus. I've lived in NC prety much most of my life, except for a few years in Michigan. I'm a freshman undergraduate in Pratt, who's leaning towards majoring in BME and possibly minoring in Economics.
Interests
Here at Duke, I'm really interested in genetic engineering. I work in the Rausher lab, looking for the variations in genetic code that cause color changes in Iochroma, a relative of the tomato plant. I'm also a big fan of music; I listen to pretty much everything, from 1964 Rolling Stones albums to modern hip hop and rap. I play the violin, and was in the Duke Symphony last semester. I'm also trying to learn the guitar, which turns out to be harder than I thought. I'm a huge fan of Duke basketball, which is a product of me living so close to Durham, and an even bigger fan of Carolina Panthers football.
