Programming and chemistry. A lot of programming was working together in groups. It was a collaborative environment with a lot of my friends. And AP Chemistry was just a fun class with a great teacher.

I’m going to Brown. I plan to study computer science on a pre-med track.

I’ve always wanted to be a doctor or a neurosurgeon since I was young, but it wasn’t until I took computer science classes at Thayer and had fun with our class that I became interested in computer science as a career.

AP Spanish with Senor Vega. It was a lot of work--especially to prepare for the oral presentations. As a teacher Senor Vega is hard, but he’s a really cool guy.

I really liked Moby Dick in Mr. King’s literature class. I liked the theme of futility and the structure of the book.

Try something that you would never expect yourself to do. If I didn’t run for class officer I would never have done any speech writing or public speaking like that. I never thought I was a public speaker, but I really enjoyed it.

Probably creating Eureka (a magazine published by the Science Club). We all pitched stories and then edited it together. We made a high quality production that we were proud of.

Winter Wars. I feel like it’s a pretty unique event. The pride in our class is what inspired me to run for a class officer position, so I'm especially partial to the Winter Wars tradition.

I'm a black belt in Taekwondo.
