Hey y'all! My name is Akshita Govindaraj and I’m a freshman at NC State University, majoring in Environmental Science and planning to go to med school after college. I was born in India but have lived my whole life in America and almost 5 years in Charlotte, North Carolina. Writing is something I love doing in my free time, and I’m super excited to see where my academic journey takes me.
I’m really into plants and gardening—I’ve got a growing collection of houseplants. I’ve also been drawing mandalas (check them out online, they're super cool!) since I was a kid, which is one of my favorite ways to unwind. Music is a huge part of my life too, and I’m always listening to Yeat and Travis Scott.
I’m also obsessed with makeup and skincare, and I’ve built up a pretty solid collection that I use every day. I like learning about new products that come out and I like reviewing them too. Lately, I’ve been getting into thrifting, even though I’m still pretty new to it, but I love finding cool, unique pieces and I am just interested in fashion and being sustainable by thrifting is such a plus! I’m so excited to be part of Her Campus and can’t wait to get involved. Thanks for checking out my bio!
