Major: Computer Science

Year: Junior

Hometown: Cherry Hill, NJ

I chose this major because... Computer science is an ever-evolving field, and I want to create technology that is accessible to all and not just a select few. There is something new to improve or create every day.

Favorite Course(s): CS 260, INFO 310

Clubs/Extracurricular Activities: WiCS, Peer Mentor

Co-ops I’ve done: 1st Co-Op: Software Engineer at Comcast; 2nd Co-Op: DevOps Engineer at Comcast

Favorite thing/place at Drexel: Drexel Park

When I'm not at Drexel, I'm... Visiting other areas outside of Philly and trying new restaurants!

When you are in Philadelphia, I think you should... Visit the different markets held in Rittenhouse! They host food, art, and much more!

Advice to new/incoming CCI students: College can be a huge shift from what you may be used to, but it's one of the most transformative experiences you'll go through. Be yourself, have fun, learn, and grow.

What is your dream job: Build accessible technology that makes a true impact on the community it's built for.

Favorite Animated Character: Snoopy

Bio

I’m a Junior Computer Science major with a UI/UX minor. I love the problem-solving aspect of computer science combined with the design principles of UI/UX. Outside of school, I love to explore new restaurants in Philly with friends, go on walks, and take photos!
