What has surprised you most about yourself since starting at UTD? How much I’ve grown out of my shell.
One thing you HAD to bring with you to college: A shruti box, which is a device we use in classical Indian music.
Why did you become a Student Ambassador? I wanted to improve my communication skills and make friends.
Plans after graduation: Medical school either at Baylor College of Medicine or NYU Medical School.
