Plans

I plan on studying Industrial Engineering or Computer Science. I am very passionate about service and I plan on dedicating my time to solve real-world problems in underserved communities. A strong interest of mine is learning about cultural diversity and the current issues affecting our country and globally. I am currently learning Hindi — which has been a lifelong dream of mine — so I can understand my heritage. I hope to continue playing tennis, as well.
