“Tell me about yourself.”
I have been interested in psychology from an early age and this has furthered my understanding of people and my ability to recognize needs or problems within a community. The more problems I recognized over the years, the more I wanted to contribute to some kind of solution and it was this desire to help that led me to design, and continues to fuel me today. I look forward to helping you discover your passions and using them to guide your career path!
Where do you see yourself in the future?
I am very interested in product design– both digital (UI/UX) and industrial. Although I do not know which I prefer yet, I hope to create meaningful solutions to human-centered problems with whichever path I do pick.
What are you involved in on campus?
I am part of Medium Design’s Praxis Brand Consulting and I am also currently working as a research intern in the Meta Design and Technology Lab. I’m involved in Cornell Marketing, a marketing consulting group, and SEEPAC (Students from Emerging Economies Professional Association at Cornell), where I create social media content and other marketing materials as the Marketing Executive.
What do you like to do in your free time?
In my free time, I love to read and watch movies. I really enjoy art as well and like most fitness activities, especially swimming.
