About Me

Hi, my name is Katarina (pronnounced Kat-uh-REE-nuh, not Katrina like the hurricane). I'm from Florida but was born in Singapore. I am currently studying at Duke university and plan on majoring in biomedical engineering. I was a diver in high school but my all-time favorite sport is skiing.
