About Me
I am currently an undergraduate student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. Originally from Montreal, Canada, I am fluent in both French and English. I am unsure about my eventual major, but I am interested in both ME and ECE. I've been swimming competitively since the age of 7, and I am currently a member of the Duke Swimming & Diving team. My specialties are the 50 and 100 freestyle as well as the 100 breaststroke.
Name Pronunciation
My name is pretty straightforward in terms of pronunciation, but somehow people always seem to mess up "Fraser". No, it's not like the TV show - the 's' is more like a 'z' in this case. Think 'razor' with an 'f'.

Favorite MATLAB demo
There are two MATLAB demonstrations that I found to be particularly interesting - the Lorenz Attractor and 3-D Surface plots. In freshman year of high school, I chose chaos theory as the topic of my research. Needless to say, I didn't go very in depth on the math behind it, but I was intrigued by the effects of small variances in initial conditions on the outcome of a system. The Lorenz attractor was a key component to my presentation, as it clearly demonstrates the drastic effect of alterations of the final results.
