As a Milstein Scholar, I’m drawn to the interdisciplinary nature of studying human behavior and technology. I’m interested in how psychology can inform product design, particularly how understanding people’s needs and experiences can help create more accessible and intuitive technology. Outside of design, I’m also fascinated by language, especially how language shapes the way we think and understand the world. I’m excited by the possibility of bringing together perspectives from the humanities and technology to create things that improve people’s lives, even if just a little bit!
As a classically trained composer and pianist (Juilliard Pre-College and Tanglewood alum!), I’m also super passionate about music! I enjoy writing music for strings and film scores, and I’m particularly interested in orchestration. Inspired by Studio Ghibli soundtracks and Impressionist composers, my aim is to write music that makes people feel something.
On campus, I am involved with Big Red Ambassadors and ALANA Intercultural Programming Board. I design for Thread Magazine, Design Consulting at Cornell, and Medium Design Collective. In my free time, I find joy in rollerblading, writing, playing and watching tennis, thrifting, and foodmaxxing with friends! Always happy to yap, so feel free to reach out!
