Hobbies

Though I have a great love for everything pertaining to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math), I also have a deep love for the performing arts. I am a dancer, actress and played the violin for 12 years. I am outgoing and know how to make someone crack a smile. The performing arts has kept me sane in a word full of pencil and paper and it has been the driving force of my successes.
