Hometown?

Queens, NY

What's an interesting/fun fact about yourself?

I'm fairly good at putting puzzles together.

If you could time travel, what year (past or future) would you go to and why?

I would go to 2030 to see how far we have come with traveling to outer space.

What's your favorite thing about New York Tech?

I really like our campus locations. Students get the best of both worlds with our campuses on Long Island and in NYC.

What's your best advice to students considering/applying to New York Tech?

I have a lot of advice (maybe too much) but, I think finding a place that is a good fit for you, your personality, your academic and career goals; but also provides you with opportunities to explore things that you have not done before. Regardless of the school you choose, the experience is what you make of it. Take advantage of everything in college and learn as much as you can, both in and out of the classroom!

Do you have any pets you want to brag about?

I don't have any pets...maybe in the future.

Favorite movie?

Avengers

Favorite TV show?

Law & Order, especially when there are marathons of old episodes.

Favorite book?

I can't just pick one, so here are a few of my favorites: Half the Sky, The Kite Runner, One Hundred Years of Solitude, Little Fires Everywhere, Americanah and Trevor Noah's Born a Crime.
