If I'm not in class, you will find me...

You will find me in a coffee shop. I love a good cup of coffee and to get to know those cozy spaces that complement it. This is where I find myself most productive, it's definitely one of the highlights of my day.

My favourite spots of the summer are Farenheit for their Diablo Brazil bean with chocolate notes, and Found, which is the only place I've come across that handles mocha with dark chocolate.

What are some good podcasts to listen to while working?

Song Exploder and Las Culturistas are two podcasts I enjoy listening to while working. They’re fun and easy to listen to while working away at drawings and models.

What is your favourite lunch and coffee spot near Daniels?

My favourite lunch spot near Daniels is Phở Hưng and my favourite coffee spot is Pamenar. I am  looking forward to a fun next two semesters at Daniels and to advocating for the interests of our student body.

What are some good songs or albums to listen to while working? 

When working on studio projects, I tend to get deeply absorbed in an album. I find myself frequently listening to "Adieux au Dancefloor" by Marie Davidson, "Etazhi" by Molchat Doma, "iii" by Badbadnotgood, and "Viva La Woman" by Cibo Matto. (I have a feeling that I will exhaust these albums before the school year is over.)

My favourite class so far has been...

A tough question! I liked studio in first year second semester a lot. Materials, assemblies and techniques was really fun too, and super practical.

If I’m not in class, you will find me…

Traveling or trying out different cultural cuisines at various restaurants. I like Indian food from Benares, Scottish food from The Caledonian and Korean food from Jin Dal Lae!

What are some good songs or albums to listen to while working?

The Köln Concert is one of my favourite music to listen to when I need to focus. It’s a recording of solo piano improvisation by Keith Jarett. I wouldn’t consider myself a piano fan but this one is special. But my latest favourite album, it would have to be Taylor Swift’s Midnights.
