Andrew Ylitalo

Andrew Ylitalo is a freshman at Stanford University, where he will (most likely) study physics and chemical engineering. He hails from Minnesota, where he spent a lot of time in math competitions, science fairs, and jazz band rehearsals. He was also involved in the small Armenian community at St. Sahag Church in St. Paul, through which he learned Armenian, became a subdeacon, and traveled to Armenia. He is currently a member of the Armenian Students’ Association at Stanford and a subdeacon at St. Andrew’s Armenian Church in Cupertino. He hopes to one day become a professor and combine his two passions—physics and education.
