On a random day, you're most likely to find me….

Studying with friends at Costa Coffee, which is a coffee shop inside the business school.

What is your favorite Emory tradition?

Every Thursday at 4 pm, I'm always excited for KEGS (Keeping Emory Goizueta Social). BBA council caters food (like Chick-fil-A, Mellow Mushroom pizza, etc.) right on the lawn outside the business school. A lot of BBA students come, get food and drinks, and hang out. Sometimes alumni also come to KEGS so we can informally network with them. I love coming with my friends and catching up with all my BBA friends - you can really feel the atmosphere and community in the business school.

My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

going to restaurants with friends! My favorite ones have been Ruby Chow's, Planta, Sotto Sotto, and Delbar.

What has been your most impactful class?

I loved FIN 430: Foundations of FinTech in the business school because it was the first time I learned about blockchain, big data, and machine learning. I loved the class and professor so much that I reached out to be a Research Assistant to help the professor with her academic papers, and I'm still involved with that today.

I'm passionate about...

Hiking/backpacking/camping Painting Photography
