Edgar Leon '25 (he/him)
Advising Intern
Hi, my name is Edgar Leon and I am currently a junior from Houston, TX. I’m double majoring in Computer Science and Music. This summer, I went to a Film Scoring Workshop at NYU. I was also the Percussion Instructor at Waltrip High School and taught students percussion pedagogy, music theory, and proper rehearsal techniques as well as arranged pieces for the upcoming marching show. In addition to this, I worked with Music Professor Richard Freedman developing course materials and upgrading and updating old data science projects. I am passionate about teaching others and helping others develop leadership skills. During my free time, I play video games, compose (usually film scores or orchestra music), and go on Wawa runs with friends.
