Were you involved in any research projects while at Hofstra?

I have one ongoing research project with Professor John from the medical school and Professor Wu in the mathematics department. We are applying machine learning to classifying fMRI images of patients to determine whether they have schizophrenia or not.

What were some of the activities or organizations you participated in while at Hofstra?

I joined three honor societies: PME, PBK, and UPE. I didn't know when I first joined, but PBK is the oldest and most prestigious honor society in the US. I was also a member of Honor’s College at Hofstra.

What was your senior honors thesis?

My honors thesis wa about debiasing machine learning algorithms in the mortgage approval process.

What will you miss the most about Hofstra?

The small class size and the fact that I can talk to professors very easily - sharing my concerns with them or simply asking questions about course materials.
