Hi! I’m Kamtoya Okeke (she/her). I’m a rising junior at Columbia University studying Cognitive Science, focusing on Economics and Human Behaviour.
My research was focused on destruction myths, stories which depict the end of the world, and I explored how these myths reflect societal values and fears, as well as how they showcase the power of storytelling.
My Leadership-in-Action Projetc is at Serve the City Paris, a nonprofit which supports refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants, and the unhoused in the city with food, language and culture exchanges, and more.
