Hi, I'm Matthias. I'm a senior and a managing editor for The Lance. I love to listen to different genres of music like classic, R&B, and pop. I'm a huge New York sports fan and I will always rep the Giants and Knicks.

Matthew Choi, Senior: “I don’t think its a bad thing but the thing that concerns me the most about it is the potential rise of COVID. With less people wearing masks it increases the chance of getting it. Other than that I kinda hate how uncomfortable wearing a mask is.”
