Hi everyone! My name is Risa, and I am a senior studying Neuroscience with a secondary in Psychology. I am originally from Japan and have spent half my life in Tokyo and the other half in Westchester, New York. At Harvard, I have been involved in the Radcliffe Choral Society, which is a soprano-alto choir that aims to foster appreciation for women's choral music. I have also really enjoyed the diverse experiences here on campus, including working in a Psychology lab and a Molecular Neurobiology lab. Outside of academics and extracurriculars, I love to play card games and board games with my roommates and block mates and we still do so even in this virtual setting!

I am excited to have the opportunity to support prospective students, so please reach out to me if you have any questions about life at Harvard including academics, extracurriculars, or anything else!
