About Me
Hello, I am a first year Pratt student, thinking of majoring in either Biomedical or Electrical Engineering (or maybe some other type of engineering -- not sure yet). My interests include reading, drawing, and being really awesome.
Phonetic Pronounciation
My full name is pronounced "Ish-ee-tha Sing." My nickname is pronounced "Ish-ee" (rhymes with the word "fishy").
Grand Challenges for Engineering

MATLAB Demonstrations
One of my favorite demonstrations is the Minesweeper game because I think it is pretty incredible to be able to create a program for an interactive game, especially since I usually associate MATLAB with more serious graphing and problem solving. Another demo I thought was really cool was the "Game of Life" because it was fascinating to watch the simulation of the life and death of cells. Also, this sort of simulation has the potential to be pretty practical, as well.
