Fariha Hashmi
My name is Fariha Hashmi & I am a junior at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. My major is Computer Engineering with a minor in Mathematics. I love drawing and oil painting. I have always been interested in arts but never really had the opportunity to learn deeply about it academically since I got into a STEM field. I am currently doing a co-op internship at Thermo Fisher Scientific, so I am taking online courses on arts and want to broaden my knowledge in this area. I like to link art with the realities of life and therefore for the purpose of these classes I am focusing on the topic of religion viewed through diverse forms of arts and how it differs in various cultures.
