About Me

I’m Ruby Hull, an ID student at Purdue University. At Purdue, I’m learning to refine the physical and digital processes needed to create ergonomic, visually appealing products for daily life.

Beyond academics, I love to illustrate, play the piano, and sing. I currently perform in the Purduettes ensemble, a treble chorus at Purdue.
