Graduating Class: 2029
Major: Biochemistry and Classics (Greek & Latin)
Why Classics: I have a myriad of academic interests, but they are all centered around understanding a topic through patterns and formulae. Because of this, one of my primary interests is linguistics, particularly regarding inflective languages such as Latin and Greek. I enjoy exploring their morphological patterns and using those patterns to produce translations, especially when those translations are complicated by aspects such as poetic meter.
