PERSONAL: Her father, Nicholas, attended Tufts...Biopsychology major...Chose Tufts because "Parallel to my academic pursuits, I remain committed to sailing—a sport that has been an integral part of my life. My involvement with the Youth Swiss Sailing Team and my current transition to a helmsman role in the 49er FX class, is an important step forward in my ambitions for an Olympic campaign. These experiences, I believe, will complement my academic endeavors at Cornell. I have already reached out to the sailing coach, looking forward to the opportunity to contribute to the team."
