Hi! I’m Soph, a Class of 2028 combined degree student at SMFA. When I’m not working on designs in the Adobe suite or coding websites with Visual Studio Code, I often carve in the woodshop or work on pastel and charcoal drawings.

My favorite extracurricular pastimes at Tufts include Project Linus, Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, and Saturdays at the President’s Lawn Dog meet-ups. If I’m not in the library or the studio, I can usually be found trying out new gluten-free bakeries, reading books on a picnic blanket at one of Tufts’ many green spaces, or Facetiming my cats and dogs back home in South Carolina.
