Hello! My name is Sarah Karlekar and I’m an eighth grader at Cedar Hill Preparatory School in Somerset, NJ.

Math and Science are my favorite subjects, although I enjoy the areas of reading and writing. I am fascinated by the field of neuroscience due to its complexity and salience in our society.  

I recently took a Neuroscience Honors course through Northwestern University to learn more about this field. With a further understanding of the human brain, I aim for well-being of all people and make this world a better place.

In my free time, I love to paint, read, practice taekwondo, play the piano, and volunteer through my initiative, Learn With Us.
