Hello!! Back again after a little blog hiatus, but I’ve got a lot to write about now! I just returned from my short but very packed vacation in Honolulu, Hawai’i, where I spent seven days staying at my grandma’s house (and my dad’s childhood home!) in Hawai’i Kai, spending time with family, at my favorite beaches, and eating way too…

New York: My Summer in Transit
Hey guys! It’s me again with yet another blog post—I’ve had two very exciting weeks since I last updated you all, and though I’d love to get into them in depth I fear I won’t be able to in so few words. I’ll be recapping as much as I can for you now! I spent the weekend before last weekend…

Goodbye (for now)!
Hi everyone! It’s the last week of classes, honk, honk! The weather is great, the flowers are blooming, the birds are singing…and exams are coming.

End of Junior Year and Advice 😿
Happy end of the school year! I cannot believe that this is my last blog post of junior year. This year has been great and has gone by incredibly fast. As with any school year, it has had its ups and downs: it has been academically challenging, and managing three jobs has not been easy. But, I have learned so…
Interning in India
Happy end of the school week! I will recap my recent summer internship abroad in India. Through Wellesley’s Lulu Chow Wang ’66 Center for Career Education, I completed a Global Signature Internship at a think tank in Mumbai, India. So, I received this opportunity and $5,000 in funding to go abroad from Wellesley. If you want to learn more about…
Summer Catch-Up
Hi everyone! This past summer has been the first summer that I spent on campus at Wellesley doing research. Last year I did my summer internship in Bulgaria, so this was definitely a different experience. Physics, however, is one of those subjects where it’s essential to get as much experience with research as possible in college—not only to help you…
