- Society & Culture
Vision is a curious thing. We can see the same object as someone else but perceive in a wildly different way, from an accumulation of relationships, travels, and beginnings. I explore the different parts of our lives that have shaped our identities through conversations with people who inspire and challenge me. We refine our lines of sight as we discuss and mold our ideas into an ongoing dialogue that extends beyond the walls of our college campus.

I talk with my suite mate, Grace Power, about residential life in college.

We laugh at how different our days are but see theater and neuroscience as more similar than they are different.
