About Me
I am currently a student of the Class of 2018 at Duke University. I am part of the Pratt School of Engineering and am hoping to study Mechanical Engineering. I am from Ridgefield, Connecticut and have lived in the same house in the same suburb my whole life. I have three siblings, two sisters and one brother, who are all much older than I am. My dad is a doctor and my mom is a teacher. I also have three dogs.
Extracurricular Interests
I love playing tennis and have played my entire life. I also have a passion for philanthropy, math, and theatre. In high school I was most involved with the Tennis Team, Math Team, Philanthropic Youth Council, and a local Jewish Youth Group, among a few other things. At Duke, I am currently involved with the Outing Club, FEMMES (Females Excelling More in Math, Science, and Engineering), and the Jewish Student Union. I also hope to join the Energy Club and Special Olympics College.
