About me
I am a current freshman at Duke University. I'm enrolled in the Pratt School of Engineering as a prospective BME major. I graduated from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in South Florida.
Name Pronunciation
Although my parents pronounce my name differently, the easiest way for others to pronounce my name is the following: "Mud - it" : Consider it literally as two different words, "mud" and "it". Trust me, it saves quite a bit of trouble as opposed to saying my name as "moo-dit" or "mau-dit".
Current Courses
For the fall 2014 semester, I'm in these four classes:
- EGR103 - Computational Methods in Engineering
- MAT212 - Multivariable Calculus
- CHEM201 - Organic Chemistry I
- PSY103 - Developmental Psychology
Achievements
The only real significant thing I've done in high school is attain a title of semifinalist for the Siemens science fair competition. My lab partner (Sameer Pandhare) and I conducted research at Florida State University for about 6 weeks in a STEM program. We worked under associate professor Akash Gunjan, whose research primarily dealt with histone proteins and how they respond to DNA damage.
MATLAB Demonstration
My favorite MATLAB demonstration includes matrix operations such as performing addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division on an element by element basis. Also, I liked how to produce inverses of matrices or selecting rows or columns from an original matrix.
