I am driven by an intense intellectual curiosity and a passion for learning, but my challenge has always been deciding what to focus on.

During high school, everything drew my interest. Spreading my time across many different pursuits, I explored computer science and robotics through research internships, wrote about history and policy for my school newspaper, and researched economics while interning at a local law firm.

Soon enough, I learned that I didn’t have to decide on any one subject. My breadth of experiences showed me that learning is not confined to one field — it is instead about integrating knowledge from multiple areas to build a well-rounded understanding of the world.

The Milstein Program at Cornell offers the perfect opportunity for me to embrace an interdisciplinary mindset. Through collaboration with this diverse group of peers and faculty, I’ll explore my wide range of interests, satisfy my passion for learning, and connect seemingly disparate ideas to form creative insights.
