Global Challenge: Emerging Media
Being a part of GLASS will prepare me to be multicultural, multidisciplinary, entrepreneurial, socially conscious, and globally engaged because of the structure of the program and the opportunities it offers.
Bio:
I’m an undergraduate student at NYU Tandon majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Management. In my free time, I love playing volleyball, badminton, as well as the clarinet. I also enjoy volunteering at animal shelters and teaching STEM in underfunded communities. Throughout high school, I specialized in Civil Engineering and Architecture, where I developed an interest in different types of immersive media through Revit’s Enscape extension. While at Tandon, I explored this interest as a member of the Dibner Library Augmented Reality team, where I lead the research and development of virtual reality. In this team, I am making a virtual reality experience to make the team app more immersive for the user. Currently, I am a teaching assistant for NYU’s General Engineering department. As I learn more about computer science I am applying my knowledge to various personal projects. Presently, I am working on a personal website, a flashcard pop-up game that uses spaced learning, and a virtual classroom that aims to make STEM education accessible.
