Why did you choose your major/what do you want to do with your degree?
I really enjoy using computer science to solve math problems and am interested in finance, so I hope to land a job working as a Quantitative Trader.
What is your favorite thing about the Camras Scholars Program?
Camras brings together a lot of people who have a similarly strong drive to succeed, and it helps create a sort of positive feedback loop of motivation.
Where do you see yourself in 20 years?
I can't really imagine where I will be in 20 years; there's just too many unknowns. I try rather to consider very specific outcomes I want to occur and strive for those.
How do you think you best represent what it means to be a Camras scholar?
In 2018, for my Eagle Scout Service Project, I planned and led the replacement of old rotten flower beds and the construction of an informational sign at a students' demonstration garden in my school district.
