Fun Facts
My greatest passions are literature and politics. I’m undeterred by the disparity between fiction and reality and comforted by the notion of erasure. I read to honor the trials of my forebears and write in pursuit of utopia.

About Me
I am a rising Freshman at Duke University planning to major in Public Policy Analysis with a certificate in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. At Duke, I will take part in the FOCUS program for Humanitarian Challenges along with approximately 30 peers. I am excited to compete with the Duke Debating Society and meet fellow students from all around the world. After graduation, I hope to pursue a law degree and work in public service.

During our time together, I like to follow a custom lesson plan and practice corresponding ex
