BIOGRAPHY
Hi, my name is Riddhima and I'm a freshman studying Information Sciences! I love the freedom of road cycling and am a huge supporter of better bicycle infrastructure everywhere. I enjoy listening to music (Elliott Smith, Kara Jackson, NCT, Sufjan Stevens, and more) reading, journaling, and watching video essays in my free time. I'm also a part of Illinois Design Consulting, the Daily Illini, and Psi Eta Mu!
PERSONAL STATEMENT
As an Information Sciences major, I believe that documenting our experiences is an essential part of life. The Illini 4000's Portraits Project brings that concept to fruition, and I look forward to contributing to it over the course of the ride. I hope to memorialize the stories of those who have been affected by cancer and raise awareness for their experiences.
