Hi! I am a junior in the Economics department pursuing a certificate in environmental studies. I grew up in Southern California, but moved to New York City halfway through my freshman year of college. Prior to coming to Princeton, I hadn't set my sights on any specific major in particular, but I took a wide range of courses and found I loved the way that the study of economics is relevant to so many different academic areas, be it history, sociology, or environmental studies. On campus, I am on the varsity cross-country and track and field teams, which keep me busy all year round! Contact me with any questions about balancing sports and school, economics, or just life at Princeton. Can't wait to meet you all!
