About Me
I'm a member of the Duke Class of 2019. I plan on double-majoring in Biomedical Engineering and Math, as a pre-med, but I'm still exploring my options! I'm from Portland, Oregon and I've lived there my entire life so I'm still adjusting to the East Coast and the sheer amount of sun!
Name Pronunciation
A lot of people think of it like Uma as in Uma Thurman. I guess phonetically it's more like OO-ma DOE-shee, but it's really not that accentuated. The official IPA way of writing my name is [ˈjumə] [ˈdoʊʃi]...but I think that just makes everything more confusing.

Favorite MATLAB Demo
My favorite demo was the FFT for Spectral Analysis Demo in the Mathematics section. I did a research project throughout high school where I used FFT to analyze sound waves, but I never used Matlab to analyze my data, so seeing FFT done on a different platform was really interesting.
