Proudest Moment: One of my proudest moments was creating a music video of our competition set with my a cappella group Furmata. I never imagined that I would be involved in a musical project of this caliber as an undergrad.
I am excited to be graduating from UW with Interdisciplinary Honors and a degree in Computer Science. These past four years I have gotten to explore my biggest passions: music and technology. I have been deeply involved in my a cappella group Furmata. I have sung at various events in Seattle including weddings, fundraisers, UW alum events, and national competitions. As President of Furmata, I have overseen and organized competitions, gigs, music videos, and albums. I have also enjoyed deepening my knowledge of computer science outside of the classroom. My experience as a TA for the CSE14x series along with my internships at Automation Anywhere and Amazon have prepared me for my full-time role at Microsoft. I feel so lucky to have found incredible friends at UW, and I can't wait to grow with them.
