My favorite Brandeis tradition is...

The 24 hour musical!

I chose Brandeis because...

Of the small campus community.

My favorite place on campus, in Waltham or in Boston is...

the Muslim prayer room , where there is a nice environment decorated with fairy lights as well as a vibrant community who welcomes anyone no matter religious affiliation. As someone practicing Islam, this space was a great place to learn more about the faith as well as talk with those aligned with this faith as well! Sometimes events are also hosted in this space, which is great to engage in.

My favorite Brandeis class/professor is...

Yuri Doolan! He is the chair of the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Studies department and has guided me through my journey of learning more about my identity. Professor Doolan has also taught thought provoking courses that critically analyze the AAPI diaspora. I would recommend anyone to take a course with him, or to even just have a conversation with Professor Doolan!

I'm passionate about...

Traveling and Exploring New Places Cooking (but mostly eating) Reading fiction and nonfiction
