Grace Lee '24 - Introduction
Hiya! My name is Grace (she/her), and I am a sophomore from Diamond Bar, CA, a suburb in Southern California. At the end of my first year, I declared Biology as my major, and I am currently considering Music as my second major.
In addition to being a prospective major in Music, my love for violin led me to join the Amherst Symphony Orchestra and start a new music volunteering club called Healing Hearts with Harmony. On the STEM-related side of Amherst, I am a Profiles Editor for Amherst STEM Network, and I also participated in the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship this past summer. Beyond music and STEM, I also have an on-campus job with the Healthy Herd Advocates and live in the Asian Cultural House in Morrow.
Outside of class, you can probably find me rushing to Arms Music Building for practice, chugging AHA seltzers at Val, scrambling to finish my work at the Science Center, admiring the picturesque sky, or filling up my loyalty cards at one of the three boba shops in town. I’ve had such a fun time here so far, and I’m so excited to share my experiences at Amherst! If you’re curious about the music scene, the STEM community, or about the college in general, please shoot me an email at yelee24@amherst.edu — I’d love to speak to a prospective Mammoth! Cheers, and have a wonderful day!
