Hobbies:


Outside of academics and personal projects, I like to read. My current favorite book is The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner. Some other favorites of mine include The Princess Bride by William Goldman, The Secret History by Donna Tartt, and anything by Steinbeck or Dostoevsky.

I also dabble in music and music production. I have been playing piano for 16 years and still enjoy playing when I have time. My favorite pianists are Vladimir Horowitz and Glenn Gould. I listen to Chopin's Etudes near-religiously and especially like op. 10 no. 12 "Revolutionary", op. 25 no. 11 "Winter Wind", and op. 25 no. 12 "Ocean". My favorite musical artists are Mitski, The Strokes, and Beach House. I also enjoy Lorde, Black Dresses, 100 gecs, The Moldy Peaches, and more!
