Hi! I'm a freshman (class of 2028) in Viterbi studying Astronautical Engineering and I'm from St. Louis, Missouri. My family is small, consisting of my two awesome parents and my 10-pound Yorkie, Truman. Outside of the classroom, I'm involved with the Rocket Propulsion Lab, the Society of Women Engineers, and intramural sports, and I love exploring Los Angeles with my friends, hitting the gym, and making music. Fight On!
