Bio

Hi :) I'm an incoming freshman at Northwestern University studying chemistry and music, with a special focus in biochemistry and pharmaceutical science! Throughout high school, I had a very interdisciplinary focus within human rights and science, and I'm interested in pursuing the intersection between different disciplines through advocacy and research. A scholarship would really support my research goals in college and give me the freedom to pursue both my academic and creative goals, particularly through sharing my music and songwriting with the world. Thank you so much for your consideration!
