Executive Board

Hello! I’m Nancy Yang (she/her) and I’m a computer science and applied math major in the class of 2028 (though I flirt with pure math every so often). I’ve lived in various states across the US and have no idea where I’m from at this point. In my free time, I love drawing, learning history, and creating characters, especially all three combined. My favorite Slivka memories are of Murder Mystery. Looking forward to being your president, and reach out if you ever want to nerd out about anything at all!

Hey!! I’m Isah Ansari (he/him) and I’m part of the Applied Math exec takeover in the Class of 2028. I also minor in ML and Transport. If you ask me where I’m from, I’ll give you any of Toronto, New York, or Dubai at random (ask me where else I’ve lived)! I’m a huge fan of Eurovision, Formula 1, Nintendo, dance, and transit systems. I also once ran an IRL Dress to Impress event.

Hello! My name is Marina (she/her) and I’m an applied mathematics major in the class of 2028. I’m also enrolled in the MLDS minor and the general music minor. I’m from Columbus, Ohio, and in my (classically McCormick student) limited free time, I love to listen to and play classical music and watch musical theater. I recently took up crocheting as well and have promptly assembled a list of all the plushies I’d like to make in the future. I’m excited to start my first full-length term as your treasurer after serving a quarter on an interim basis. Always feel free to come say hi or chat, but be forewarned, at any time I may start yapping about whatever musical or classical work I’m currently obsessed with!

Hi! I’m Aishani Das-Ghosh (she/her), an applied math major in the class of 2027. I’ve lived in several places across the East Coast, once in Wisconsin, and currently live near Indianapolis. Outside of classes, I enjoy playing the piano and exploring restaurants with friends! As Slivka’s Fellows Chair, I’m here to connect you with professors, research opportunities, and everything in between. Feel free to reach out anytime!

Hi! My name is Fátima Yunis (she/her), and I’m a Mechanical Engineering major in the class of 2029. I’m from Asunción, Paraguay (kudos if you can locate it on a map), and I love reading fantasy novels, playing video games and listening to any random song spotify recommends to me. You will likely find me in the rec lounge yapping and playing minecraft, so feel free to approach me anytime. I look forward to being your Facilities Chair! My favorite Slivka memory is cooking for Slivksgiving!

Hello! My name is Pedro P. and I’m an Electrical Engineering major in the class of 2029. I hail from the glorious state of (southern) California, which truly is the heart of America. My fav Slivkan memory was hosting loteria and getting to know my community. I like rewatching Nolan movies, playing Tennis, and playing video games (I love Crosswords, Pool, and Stardew). I have also famously never lost to Nancy in Catan.

Hi! My name is Jamie Zhou (she/her) and I’m a neuroscience and biology major in the class of 2027. I’m from Zionsville, Indiana. I enjoy crocheting, reading, and watching cdramas. I’m also always down to go for a bike ride around the lakefill. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi everyone! I’m Joanna (she/her), an electrical engineering major from NYC in the class of 2029. Some of my interests that I do during my free time include gaming, drawing, poetry, photography, and badminton. We should definitely be friends if you are a cat person! Feel free to reach out to chat or if you have questions! I look forward to serving as your co-chair of Publications. My favorite Slivka memory is this year’s Lunar New Year celebration with Kchou!

I’m from Chicago, IL, and double majoring in Materials Science & Engineering and Art, Theory, and Practice (Fine Arts) in the class of 2029. I’m hoping to become an art conservator! I’m excited to nerd out with you about any topics relating to art, science, ornithology, and history, and discuss Chicago’s museums, nature, and transportation options. Some of my favorite pieces of media include Dimension 20, Taskmaster, Dredge, Death’s Door, and The Phantom Tollbooth. Favorite Slivka memory: hosting a spinning and dyeing event. Every week I do my best to “make problems for everyone” through the Slivka newspaper (the TP) and we’d love to have your input on our next Puzzle of the Week. Happy solving 🙂

Hi! I’m Emerson Tiller (he/him) and I’m a mechanical engineering & RTVF (radio, television, and film) Dual Degree in the class of 2028. I’m from Chicago, Illinois, but I love to hear about all kinds of places! I’m always up to something new, but I’m currently into theatre sound design, robotics research, astrophysics, and philosophy. I also love reading and will always take a book recommendation! I’m always excited to hear about everyone’s interests – so please feel free to say hi and reach out 🙂

Howdy! I’m Sean Griffin (he/him) and I’m from Baltimore, MD, majoring in Applied Math (maybe BS/MS?) and CS in the class of 2029. While I’m currently hyperfixating on Minecraft Speedrunning, Tetris, and poker, I’ve also spent (too much) time working on the Collatz Conjecture, playing tennis, solving Rubik’s Cubes, and listening to music. My favorite Slivka memories are from playing board games and doing puzzles in the Rec Lounge

Hi! I’m Amal Sastry, and I am a Neuroscience & Philosophy major from MN in the class of 2029. Some things I love are sports (football, premier league, cricket and F1 mainly), reading and animals. My favorite Slivka memory was hosting our Super Bowl party this year and a fun fact about me is that I work at a food truck when I’m home in MN. I am very excited to serve as your Social Chair this year and feel free to reach out with questions or event ideas!
