Ayesha Azeem '23
BA Psychology, minors in English and International Studies
Pronouns: she/her

On her major:
I chose psychology because I was interested in learning more about the brain and why people behave in certain ways. I have always been an avid reader and wanted to continue this interest in college, so I chose English as a minor. I hope to pursue medical school and a master's in public health and have an interest in working internationally, so I chose international studies as a minor.

Interests:
I enjoy writing and reading, and love to bake in my free time. I also enjoy listening to true crime podcasts and love Bollywood movies and music.
