About me: Im a sophomore transfer student from Columbia University, but now I am here at Duke to complete my BME major and english minor. Im originally from Long Island, New York. I run cross country and track here at Duke. When not running I enjoy water sports and boating, I also have a deep interest in classic muscle cars. Fun fact: I played semi-professional paintball for 2 years before I took up distance running when I was 16.

MATLAB Demos

My favorite demo was the "World Traveler" application. It had a 3d model of the globe, and given the input of 2 cities, it ran a simulated flight between the two cities and give the distance that the flight traveled. I particularly enjoyed this application because it showcased all of the capabilities that Matlab has, such as 3-d models and graphics, animation and the application window.
