Hi, I'm Merrick.

I recently graduated from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania studying Business Analytics and Management with a specialization in Entrepreneurship & Innovation, and a minor in computer science.

A lot of people wonder how I got my name. My mother named me after Joseph Merrick, a man who was shunned by society but triumphed over adversity with remarkable strength and determination. Known as “The Elephant Man,” Joseph Merrick faced significant challenges but turned what others saw as weaknesses into his unique strengths. My mother admired his resilience and the way he embraced his identity, and so she named me Merrick.

Also known as “The Elephant Man,” Joseph Merrick was shunned by society due to his physical abnormalities. However, he overcame all odds by taking advantage of what others saw as a weakness and turning it into his unique strength. My mother always admired how determined he was and how he embraced his identity, and so she named me Merrick.
