Brayden Karmann ’29

Hometown: Pittsburgh, Pa.

Major: Computer Science

What extracurriculars do you plan on joining? Ultimate Frisbee team

What are some of your hobbies?

When I find the time, I enjoy collecting records and CDs, anything physical media I can grasp onto. Doodling little sketches is another hobby I find myself doing often. Gaming is another activity that I hold close to my heart. 

What is your proudest accomplishment to date?

What I am most proud of accomplishing is winning “Most Artistic” in high school, and being a part of the yearbook in the Who’s Who section. I would draw on assignments and desks regularly, but I never thought anyone noticed. I know it’s not an actual award, but having everyone notice what I love doing filled me with joy.

Why did you choose Arcadia?

I chose Arcadia because I wanted some distance from home, but not too far. I was interested in the computer science program and saw only great things. When I visited for the first time, I was amazed by all the culture and the art I was seeing. Then, of course, the Castle. 

What are you most looking forward to?

I am looking forward to joining clubs that I never had a chance to in high school.

Anything else you’d like to share about yourself?

Cream chicken over a biscuit is my favorite food.
