Getting to know Rani...

My favorite part about competing for Brandeis is how all of the student athletes come together to support each other.
My favorite athletic moment at Brandeis has been ending the 2023 season with a win against UMass Dartmouth and an opportunity to make NCAA Regionals
My favorite high school/non-Brandeis athletic moment is winning my high school softball league championship my sophomore year
My favorite class at Brandeis is Ethics in Journalism! I took it with Eileen McNamara, an incredibly accomplished and famous journalist, but I love the class, and my Journalism minor.
My favorite place on campus is Upper Usdan - I love gathering there with friends
Something new I learned during COVID-19 is Isolation and self-reflection is super valuable
My favorite place to travel to is Madrid! I studied abroad there this past summer and I loved it.
Outside of my sport, my favorite thing to do at Brandeis is Writing more for the Brandeis Justice and being on the Executive Board of the Brandeis Student Union
My dream job is to be a journalist to tell other peoples stories and capture them to raise awareness
My favorite movie of all time is The Half of it
My favorite TV show is Jane the Virgin
My favorite song is High School my Umi
My favorite pro sports team is the Red Sox or the Celtics, I was born and raised just outside of Boston :)
My most memorable professional sports moment is when the Red Sox won the 2013 and 2018 World Series, and the last few Patriots Super Bowl Parades
My favorite emoji is the blushing emoji with its hand covering its mouth
