Background Info
Marianne Luu will be graduating in 2008 as a Genetic Biology major at Purdue University. She grew up in Carmel, Indiana and attended Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School in Indianapolis. She enjoys playing table tennis, billiards, and doing cheerleading. She reads both non-fiction and fiction, studies Romance languages religiously, plays piano, is quite a euchre player, and still struggles to figure out how to use Adobe Photoshop.
She is the current president of Purdue Innovations, an entrepreneurship club, and she also is the Director of Concerts for the Purdue Student Union Board. She loves to eat various cheeses. Her favorite movie is La Vita E Bella, her favorite poem can be found by reading the poetry of Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz. Her favorite short story is The Hitchhiker by Roald Dahl.
She loves everything about biology but knows for certain that the study of genetics is far superior to all others.
She doesn't know what exactly she wants to become when she grows up, but she is particularly interested in the field of business. She plans to be rich some way or another by the time she's 35, so be on the look-out for her again. ^_^
