Ask Me About:
• Running: As a short-distance runner in high school, I’ve always loved running/sprint intervals as my favorite form of cardio! I try to get in at least 6 miles a week, and I love to run before I weight lift. Need tips or a jogging buddy? I’m available!
• Gospel Choir: I enjoy singing (usually soprano) on Rice’s Psalm Birds! I’d love to share my experiences and favorite songs with you!
• Alternative R&B Music: Aside from gospel, I’m a huge alt R&B fan as well: SZA, Steve Lacy, and Daniel Caesar to name a few. Let’s talk about the latest tracks and our favorite albums together!

Major: Computer Science
Year: Junior
College: Jones
Hometown: Conover, NC
Ask Me About:
• Dancing: I’m involved in two dance clubs at Rice as either a choreographer or a member, those being Akoma (formerly known as RASA dance) and Basyk (the K-pop and hip-hop dance group), and dancing is my primary method of getting in cardio.
• Korean media and culture: I’ve been teaching myself Korean since 8th grade, and am still a big fan of a few K-pop groups and watch a lot of kdramas, so if you’re interested, I could talk about these things all day!
• Computer science: In true CS major fashion, I have a lot to share about comp sci classes at Rice, as well as the tech industry, professors to approach and avoid, and also the various CS/tech/engineering clubs on campus. Don’t worry, I do not fit all the CS major stereotypes!
