Name: Sophie Starck
Hometown: New York, N.Y.
Sport: Equestrian
Concentration: Computer Science
Â
Favorite experience as a Brown student-athlete?
"My favorite experience as a student-athlete was probably our winter training trip in Wellington, Florida this past January; it was so fun to see incredible professional riders at WEF (Winter Equestrian Festival), get the opportunity to jump in practice (I normally flat), and most importantly, to spend quality time with the whole team."
Â
Favorite class at Brown?
"It's so hard to pick! But my favorite class at Brown was Political Foundations of the City with Professor Josh Pacewicz – an incredible urban studies seminar that compares the American welfare state to other systems internationally and explores how we understand those political structures in an urban context."
