I'm currently a Master's student at Northwestern University in violin performance. I'm really good at Bach, Brahms, and Beethoven, but secretly wish I could rap Kendrick Lamar lyrics perfectly. Music aside, I'm really interested in history, human rights, skiing, racquetball, cooking, and meeting people who laugh at my stupid jokes.
