Hi! I'm a senior from Lincolnwood, Illinois, concentrating in Molecular Biology with a certificate in Creative Writing. From that combination alone, you can probably guess that I have a diverse set of interests, both academic and extracurricular. While I'm passionate about biology and its implications towards human health, I'm also deeply engaged in writing, especially about my Polish-Jewish heritage--an area that I've enjoyed exploring through my academics as well. Outside of class, I'm president of the Center for Jewish Life student board, I volunteer at the local hospital, I write for Princeton Alumni Weekly, and I'm a member of the Leadership for Change team. I look forward to meeting you, and definitely reach out with any questions you may have!
