I feel like "biography" is too official, maybe something more casual would be better.

Marcelo Zapata was born in the year 1996. He immigrated to the United States some years later. He lived most of his youth in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tustin,_California Tustin, California], and attended [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Margarita_Catholic_High_School Santa Margarita Catholic High School]. Now, he attends [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_University Duke University], more specifically the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_T._Pratt_Jr._School_of_Engineering Pratt School of Engineering] as a freshman, a member of the Class of 2018. Currently, he lives in 121 Bassett (all the way down to Baldwin and to the right). He doesn't like Basset too much because it's pretty far from the bus stop and it kind of sucks when the bus leaves just as you get there after fastwalking for like 3 minutes. The people in Bassett are pretty good though, so he thinks that despite the bad location, the company of the people there outweighs the negatives.

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite MATLAB demonstration was the "Viewing a Penny" section because it showed how by simply using contour plots, changing the color, and other basic commands such as pcolor and shading, one can create a three-dimensional view of a penny, which can be used as a benchmark for the mold of the penny. I have always been interested in the processes involved in creating a three-dimensional molds because we take mass-produced objects for granted, and we never think about what it takes to manufacture something as small and relatively unimportant as a penny.
