"Why did you come to MIT?"
My passion for science and engineering has been an overwhelming force in my life as far back as I can remember. My family brought me to Boston for a vacation in sixth grade and I fell in love with MIT the moment I stepped onto Killian Court. I came to MIT to be in an extremely stimulating intellectual environment, surrounded by some of the greatest minds in the world. I feel very priviledged to study here, both as an undergraduate and graduate student.
