Class of 2026
Majors in Statistics and Computer Science; Minor in Cultural Anthropology

I am a Spire fellow which has been instrumental to the way I found my community at Duke and have found support while being a minority in STEM. For my career I want to work to solve humanitarian issues through statistical analysis. Over the summer I took part in Data + and I use regression in order to rerank and dismantle current ideas of school success based on social determinants and created a website to highlight this discovery. Outside of class I enjoy hiking, exploring the Duke gardens, and spending time with my friends.


Favorite Class: My favorite class at Duke was Stats 210 because I learned a lot of foundational skills while also being able to have some freedom in a final project. This allowed me to put my skills to a real-world application and analyze inequities in school.
