Selen is a rising sophomore in Leverett (the best house) hoping to concentrate in Economics and/or Psychology with a secondary in either Computer Science or Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies. Like many Harvard students, she is currently struggling with choosing what to study but is also savoring the beauty and fun of pursuing many different things! She is spending this summer traveling with friends across Turkey and Greece, going to a Coldplay concert, and traveling to various cities in Italy doing a summer study abroad program about the meaning of beauty. In her free time, you can find Selen befriending the cats and dogs of Istanbul, listening to podcasts, working on her consulting slides, picking up different skills (just last week she learned how to DJ and is hoping to become a scuba instructor in a couple weeks), and hanging out with friends!
