Ecy (pronounced AC like air conditioning) King is studying SymSys with a concentration in Human-Centered AI. Although raised in California's Central Valley, she was born in Scotland and her family hails from Sierra Leone. At Stanford, she loves section leading through the CS198 program, writing about the beauty of Stanford and culture in The Daily, eating ube donuts at CoHo, and spending quality time with the people of Nerd Nation. You can find her doodling and Fractal Gridding anywhere and everywhere, messing around with the ukulele, or playing tennis with friends. Although she is in denial about being a senior, she’s tremendously excited and incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve such an amazing class at a place that has brought her and her family much happiness and joy for one last year.

Nicolas is a senior passionate about creating a culture of fulfillment at Stanford. Since freshman year, Nicolas has been involved in Stanford student government starting with Frosh Council, then Sophomore Cabinet. This last year as a Junior Class President, Nicolas was in charge of the operations team leading the work to make our biggest ideas (Junior Carnival, Junior Gala, etc.) a reality. All these events were planned with one goal in mind - to make Stanford home again to Juniors that had never seen a Spring Quarter on campus. Now in his senior year, Nicolas wants to create programs that will prepare students to succeed in the post-pandemic world so that they felt fulfilled during their time at Stanford. Apart from Student Government, Nicolas is passionate about healthcare economics having worked in McKinsey’s healthcare practice, done research at SIEPR, and now interning at HHS in DC.
