Logan Brassington
My name is Logan Brassington and I am from Collegeville, PA – about an hour outside Philly. I was a day student at a boarding school prior to coming to Penn. My freshman year college house was Fisher-Hassenfeld in the Quad. On Campus, I am involved in Engineering Student Government (Penn Engineering Council), A club that builds apps for non-profits (Hack4Impact), TA for CIS 2620, and involved in research at the Wharton Behavioral Lab. This summer I am working as a Product Intern within Comcast’s IOT division. For fun you can find me in Pottruck or running along the Schuylkill River. I am also a big foodie and I recommend everyone checkout what the Philly food scene has to offer. I am excited to meet everyone in the fall!
Hannah Gong
Hi! I’m Hannah and I’m a rising sophomore in bioengineering on the pre-med track. I’m from the Philly suburbs, and I’m happy to answer any questions about being a BE pre-med, living in Hill College House, or finding research! Outside of academics, I am involved with research at CHOP, Under the Button (campus satire magazine), and club field hockey. I’m also the financial chair for the club Alzheimer’s Buddies, as well as an undergraduate volunteer at CHOP and with the United Community Clinic. Some of my hobbies include reading, creative writing, yarn crafts, baking, and weightlifting. Welcome to Penn, I’m excited to meet you all!
Emma Chu
I am currently a rising junior extremely passionate about STEM and the performing arts. At Penn, I’m involved in two singing groups and was previously involved with chorus, orchestra, student council, track and field, and other honors societies in high school. I currently enjoy running and going to the gym, spending quality time with friends, and watching movies during my free time. I also enjoy hands on activities like working in the lab, doing puzzles, or keeping myself busy by going outside and playing sports with friends or traveling whenever I can. I’m most passionate about materials science, physics, and quantum mechanics topics and am involved in MSE society and the bladesmithing sector of MatSci Makerspace. I hope to study abroad and possibly submatriculate in nanotechnology in the future.
Nicholas Molina
I’m Nicholas, and I am a rising senior majoring in Computer Science (BSE) and Mathematics. Prior to Penn, I attended a public high school in Jersey City, New Jersey and was involved in many sports like soccer, basketball, volleyball, and fencing. I was also part of Penn’s Pre-First Year program (PFP), and TA’d for the Engineering Math part of the program with Professor Ghrist (prof/g). At Penn, I am part of the Men’s Varsity Fencing Team, volunteer for the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project (WPTP), and a student-athlete tutor for the Weingarten Center. In my free time, I enjoy playing video games on my PS4, Switch, or laptop, and I play intramural soccer, basketball, and volleyball. I look forward to meeting and getting to know you all!

On campus, I’ve TAed a few classes, and am treasurer of the beekeeping club. In my free time, I enjoy playing rhythm games, doodling, and spending time outside. I’m really excited to meet you all!
Sara Dedhia
Hey everyone! My name’s Sara and I’m a senior studying chemical and biomolecular engineering (CBE) with a concentration in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology and minor in economics. I’m really interested in the commercialization of biopharmaceutical therapies and working on bringing new drugs to market. I am also involved in two engineering organizations (the Penn Engineering Council and Society of Women Engineers), club sports (Ski and Snowboard Team), consulting (DiversaTech Consulting and Penn Undergraduate Biotechnology Society Consulting), and Greek life (Zeta Tau Alpha). I also love to play tennis, cook, go to workout classes in the city, and travel in my spare time.
