Hi! I’m Grace and I am a current undergrad at Harvard College. Having gone to musical pre-college and done math and chemistry olympiads through high school, I’m open to exploring a wide range of fields. Providing group and private lessons in music has taught me that sharing what I’ve learned with others is one of the best ways for me to appreciate and gain deeper insight into subject matter. I’m enthusiastic about music and all STEM subjects – but especially chemistry and physics (especially quantum technology), and spend far more time than I would like to inside a cleanroom.
