About Me
I originally came into Oberlin wanting to study Biology and do Premed, but after I took CS150, I fell in love with computer science. I ended up with a computer science major with a math minor. What I appreciate most about Oberlin's academics was the ability to explore outside my major. I'll never forget learning about Medieval Books of Hours or using Math to create art. Outside of academics, I was the Fencing captain and taught the intro Fencing course for a semester. I've worked a bunch of jobs ranging from working in the South bakeshop, Conservatory Circulation, CS grader, CS lab helper, and CIT help desk. Oberlin wasn't the experience I expected, but I'm grateful for the opportunities it opened up and all the fantastic people I met. Go Yeo!
