Pictor - “The Painter”; original name Equuleus Pictoris, meaning: artist’s easel; symbol: an easel; pronounced “PICK-tor”
The Pictor constellation is made up of students from the 4th Floor
Resident Assistants: Andrea Adomako, Julia Discenza, Aviva Nassimi, Kate Scarbrough
Personal Librarian: Heidi Winston
Constellation Leader: Sheila Krishnan, BC 2015
Sheila Krishnan is a sophomore at Barnard who will be majoring in Linguistics and is on the Pre-Med track. She's passionate about dance (she's trained for ten years in Indian Classical Dance and is now on CU Raas as an e-board member), and would love to learn as many dance forms – from all over the world – as she can. She loves to write (prose and poetry) and has published online, but even more than that, she loves to read and did so all summer. Her interest in science led her to do several independent research projects and drives her passion for medicine. Above all, she is fascinated with languages and their origins – someday she hopes to speak several; for now, she speaks English, Tamil, Spanish, and some Hindi.
Exploring New York City is not just a hobby. She loves its culture, its vibrance and the fact that she can find new places, shows, cuisines, and people around every corner. As an amateur photographer, she is awed by the city’s myriad expressions and lives. She had a great experience with her Constellation last year, closely following her Pictor leader, and hopes to build on her experiences to take her Constellation group to starry heights.
