  • Hometown: Lockport, NY

    Intended Major: Anthropology

    I am an Anthropology undergraduate student at Cornell University, with an interest in affordable housing, community development, and the law. My degree is focused on Cultural and Economic Anthropology as I seek to understand the intersection of social and economic systems. Post-Grad, I hope to attend a JD/MBA program, because I am deeply interested in interactions between the law and private sector, as it relates to contracts, tax law, and corporate law. Long-term I'm hoping to give back to my community by redeveloping struggling neighborhoods. Personally, I love cooking, reading about politics, finance, and current events. I am also a DJ for Cornell Radio, and I enjoy lifting weights and running.
