I am a first-year student in the college majoring in economics who joined the lab out of curiosity. The class appealed to me since I wanted to learn problem solving skills, and this class looked like a great way to gain this skill in a very innovative way. The class appeared to be very different from my math world and I decided I was willing to take it. I hope to gain new perspectives and skills that I can apply to both my professional and personal life. Additionally, I honestly just want to explore the arts, and how they intertwine with other areas, as I believe this connection is often overlooked.
