Pranay
Direct BS/MD/MBA Program at Union College, AP Physics 1 Tutor

As an artist I've always been fascinated with trying to grasp a deeper understanding of things by finding analogues to problems and gaining insight through that. The reason is i have something called Synesthesia, or a mixing of the senses. For me it just means i can see music inside my mind very vividly.
