My goal in life is to ultimately maximize the happiness of myself and those around me. Because of this, I'm very passionate about social and political issues that affect communities I belong to, as well as other marginalized communities that I do not belong to. I want to use my education to learn about people not like me and grow a better understanding of different cultures and beliefs. I also would like to use my education to make a difference when it comes to some of the biggest issues of our time such as climate change.
