Hi everyone! My name is Nana Yaa, and I’m a sophomore at Lowell House concentrating in Sociology on the data analytics track, along with a secondary in African and African American Studies. I’m originally from Ghana and I am proud of my Ghanaian heritage. I also grew up in South Dakota, so I consider both places home. Outside of academics, I’m involved in cultural orgs, as well as pre-professional groups and fellowships in business, law, consulting, and finance. In my free time, I love blasting afrobeat and gospel music, singing, and exploring new restaurants around Cambridge and Boston—especially those with spicy food, as I’m always testing my spice tolerance! I’m thrilled to be a part of the HCC team and I can’t wait to help prospective students learn more about Harvard and navigate the application process.
