Want to know more about the Brown Arts Institute but not sure where to start? Come chat with our Student Ambassadors, who are knowledgeable guides in all things BAI! In addition to sharing information about BAI’s programs, resources, and facilities, our Student Ambassadors can offer a personal perspective on what it’s like to be a student engaged in the arts at Brown. Say hi and schedule a tour below.

I am currently a Junior at Brown University, concentrating in Neuroscience and Music. My passion for science and the human side of medicine drives my commitment to undestanding the brain’s role in creativity, learning, and healing. As an aspiring neurosurgeon, I aim to merge scientific inquiry with compassion and artistry to improve patient outcomes and deepen our understanding of the mind. At Brown, I am actively involved in academic, artistic, and leadership communities. I serve on the Health and Wellness Committee, Student Government and Residence Hall Vice President, where I advocate for student well-being and inclusivity. I also volunteer in the Emergency Department at Providence’s Miriam Hospital, gaining firsthand experience in patient care. Additionally, I work with Arts Corps at the Lindemann Performing Arts Center, helping expand access to the arts across campus.

Musically, I am a member of the Providence Medical Orchestra and the Brown University Chamber Music Groups, where I continue to explore the intersection of music and medicine through collaboration and performance. Beyond my studies, I enjoy playing the cello, running, skiing, and reading. My intellectual interests extend to quantum physics, astrophysics, and mathematics, which deepen my curiosity about the brain, consciousness, and the structure of the universe. My long-term goal is to pursue medical school and neurosurgery, uniting precision, creativity, and empathy in service to others.
