About Me

I am a first-year at Duke University studying biomedical engineering (as of now). I am from Briarcliff Manor, New York and am the youngest of four children. I am interested in working in the medical field, specifically with children. In my free time, I enjoy basketball, soccer, hiking, and spending time with her family and friends. I love oreos.

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was Viewing a Penny because the visuals were so accurately represented to form into a real U.S. penny. I loved the build up between each of the four techniques. The contour plot began with an outline, then the pseudocolor plot filled in the lines. Then, the pseudocolor plot included a color map was similar to that of a photograph of a penny in unusual lighting. My favorite part was the surface plot with the colormap because I got to see the 3-D version of the colored penny. I am also fascinated by the detail put into minting coins in today's society, so the progression of the techniques really enhanced the design.
