I was born in Connecticut in 2007 as the youngest daughter of the family, and I was named “Sohini” by my older sister. My sister is nine years older than me, and she actually went to Mass Academy as well! We moved to Shrewsbury soon after I was born and lived there for the next 14 years, and then finally moved to Worcester in 2022, where I started high school at Doherty. As a person, I'm super extroverted and I love interacting with people! I was always super talkative as a kid, so I had no problem making new friends. I greatly appreciate the tight-knit collaborative environment at MAMS, in which we are able to gain close connections with our class while working together all throughout the year.
Not a lot of people expect it, but I’m an avid anime enjoyer! It started one day in elementary school as I walked into the living room, and I saw my dad watching a show I had never seen before. I joined him and realized that I really liked it! (For those wondering, that show happened to be Naruto) I keep an active list on my phone of shows I've finished as well as shows I have yet to watch, just as a way for me to keep track. Anyways, I’m always happy to talk about different anime with people, so feel free to strike up a conversation!
For as long as I can remember, I had wanted to learn how to ride a horse. I finally got the chance to do so in 5th grade, and I've been doing it ever since! My journey over the past five years (and counting!) has been such a joy. The discipline I practice is showjumping and I enjoy every part of it. There are a variety of entertaining challenges, and competing at shows is an invaluable experience. As a rider, it also teaches a good deal of resilience, seeing as it is such a dangerous sport. I ride at Heron's Crest Stables in West Boylston. Check out my MAMS application video for more about my horseback riding journey!
