About Me

I am currently an undergraduate student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I graduated from Chatham High School in Chatham, NJ in 2017. As of right now, I plan to study Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science at Duke.

Name Pronunciation

A lovely example of a Crater.

My name (Stephanie) is pronounced "Steh-FUH-Nee" (exactly like you would expected to be pronounced). If that's too hard, you can always call me Steph. My last name (Crater) is pronounced "CRAY-ter", like the large bowl-shaped cavities on the surface of a planet or moon typically caused by an explosion or the impact of an asteroid or other celestial body.

Interests

I love swimming, animals (especially dogs), being outdoors, and, of course, engineering!

Favorite MATLAB Demonstration

My favorite demo was "Loma Prieta Earthquake" because it was really interesting to see how MATLAB can be used to manipulate real-world data and generate meaningful graphs in three dimensions.
