Hi! I’m Bharaneesh (Barney) and I’m originally from India, currently pursuing my graduate program in Food Science at the Center for Dairy Research, located at Babcock. And no, I don’t get free ice cream, but I do get some cheese! I’m working on a cheese quality optimization project. Beyond the lab, I enjoy playing basketball, going for hikes, and I’m a huge fan of Stephen Curry and Messi. As an ISSAB member, I want to support and enhance ISS activities in helping create an environment where international students feel supported and included, so they don’t feel like they’re missing out and can fully enjoy campus life.
