About Me

I am a freshman undergraduate student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I am originally from Troy, Michigan but have since lived in Cary, North Carolina, Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and Brookfield, Wisconsin. I am a huge fan of the Minnesota Vikings and my favorite player is Teddy Bridgewater.

Pronunciation

Friends usually pronounce my name like add-vite or aad-vite but the way my family pronounces it is ud-vite.

Current Classes

I am currently taking the following classes: EGR103, WRITING 101: Islam is not ISIS, ECON 201: Intermediate Microeconomics, MATH 212: Multivariable Calculus

Grand Challenges for Engineering Link

Here is an article I found about reverse engineering the brain.

Favorite Demonstration

I personally really liked the Game of Life demonstration. I didn't expect Matlab to have such diverse capabilities and it was very interesting to me how just matrices could cause an animated simulation like as shown.
