About Me
- Hometown: Winter Springs, FL
- Current City: Winston-Salem, NC
- I moved to North Carolina three years ago from Coral Springs, FL and have been desperately trying to avoid getting into the habit of saying ya'll and aquiring a southern accent. Alas, many have told me that I have been unsuccessful in this endeavor. I am very excited to be a member of Duke's class of 2017 and a Blue Devil. I am also very excited to be a part of Duke's Pratt School of Engineering.

Favorite Matlab Demo
- The Bending Truss Demo
- This Demo shows how Matlab can be used to demonstrate real life situations such as tension and suspension on a bridge.
