Matthew John Campbell
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Bioengineering / Cancer Biology, expected graduation Spring 2028
BioI was born in Providence, RI and went to undergraduate at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in upstate NY for Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering. I worked for my first year out of undergraduate as process engineer in PA. From there I transitioned out of the private sector and commissioned as Surface Warfare Officer (Nuclear) in the U.S. Navy through OCS. I was on active duty for approximately 10 years including tours on the USS DECATUR and USS CARL VINSON. Both ships were based out of San Diego and all my deployments were in the Asia-Pacific region. My final tour was with Navy ROTC as Officer in Charge of NROTC Unit 73 in MA, during which I taught Leadership and Ethics and completed my M.S. in Engineering Management. I am currently studying Medicine at Stanford University with an anticipated graduation date of 2028.

Stivi Canka
Masters Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2026
BioI am a master's student in Management Science & Engineering, working on optimization and machine learning applied to the infrastructure that makes the world run, spanning manufacturing, logistics, and connectivity.
My background is in economics and mathematics, followed by work in market risk and in technology risk consulting. Across both, the recurring pattern was the same: most of the world is a set of large, poorly specified optimization problems, and comparatively few of them have been solved. At Stanford I am focused on the computational and statistical tools for attacking these problems at scale, with a particular interest in operations problems in emerging markets.
Outside my coursework, I founded Albanian Trailblazers, a mentorship network connecting Albanian students from disadvantaged backgrounds with mentors across more than twenty countries. -

Shawn Carrier
Masters Student in Civil and Environmental Engineering, admitted Autumn 2026
BioPersonal Information: I am from Levis, Quebec, Canada. I am fluent in English and French. I know the basics of Spanish, however I am not fully fluent in this language.
Academic History: I successfully completed and passed the FE Civil Exam in May 2026. I graduated at the top of my civil engineering class at the University of New Brunswick with a Bachelor's of Science in Engineering. During this degree, I received 20 academic awards excluding my NSERC USRAs and my Dean's List awards which I received every year.
Undergraduate Research Work: I spent two summers working with UNB's Smart Structures Research Group. Over these two terms, I was awarded two NSERC USRA awards. My main focus within the group was to program a MATLAB app to visualize and label accelerometer and strain sensor data from an instrumented bridge. For more information about my research work (including pictures displaying this app), please refer to my resume. -

Marina Del Cassio
Ph.D. Student in History, admitted Autumn 2022
BioMarina Del Cassio is a Ph.D. student in the Stanford Department of History and holds a J.D. from Harvard Law School. She is currently working on a legal and cultural history of wildfire and land burning in long-nineteenth-century California. Her interests more broadly lie in American legal history, indigenous history, environmental history, and history of capitalism. Before coming to Stanford, she represented tribes and municipalities in environmental law matters and clerked at the Ninth Circuit and the California Supreme Court.

Merve Cerit
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2020
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research aims to understand digital behaviors and their relationship with well-being through computational models and in-situ behavior change interventions. For my research, I have been working on a large-scale smartphone dataset, Screenome. I work closely with Nick Haber and Roy Pea from the School of Education and Nilam Ram and Byron Reeves from the Communication Department.
In my work, I mostly use machine learning and human-centered design principles.
