My Writing 101 course was “Evolutionary Biology and Taxonomy.” The purpose of the class was to learn scientific technical writing, but I was surprised at how arbitrary taxonomy is. That got me interested in animal studies and a critical lens of the sciences, which is why I added environmental studies. The first thing I noticed on the bus from the airport [in Oxford

notation software. I started playing with it and it was fun, so I started writing music. My first piece was called “Eternal Desires”— so edgy. I was 11 when I wrote it. It became very clear how good music was for me. I am on the spectrum, so it was hard for me to find my thing, and really important that I did find it. When was the moment you knew you wanted to study music at PLU? I actually took a break from music when I graduated from high school, which I am not sure whether or not I regret. I moved

student president was an enriching learning curve, and I’m very grateful for my time in student government. Learning about the legislative process, getting experience writing legislation, and making changes on campus was gratifying. I’m also proud of what senators accomplished, including integrating more authors of color in classroom textbooks and launching a campaign for a $15 unlimited yearly pass for Pierce Transit.
