About Me

I'm an undergraduate in the Pratt School of Engineering, Class of 2016. Thinking about majoring in BME, possibly a double major... We'll see!

Classes

This being my first semester, I'm taking EGR 103. That's about the extent of my experience.

MATLAB Demonstrations

My favorite demonstration in MATLAB is the Loma Prieta Earthquake Demo. I found the application of MATLAB to a real-world scenario, to create graphs of types that I often see in actual texts about earthquakes, fascinating. This may also be partially attributed to the connections I was able to draw between several operations performed in the demo and other classes I have taken/am taking, such as Multivariable Calculus.
