Master Minds Behind the Mic

Mishka Narasimhan
Founder & Co-host

Mishka is a senior undergraduate student at WashU studying Biology, Data Science, and Medical Humanities. Like many people, she became obsessed with podcasts during the pandemic. She created Master Minds with the intent of picking the brains of her college professors! Outside of class, she likes playing pickleball and feeding her unhealthy obsession with boba tea. As she navigates her interests through this podcast, she's excited to take you along for the ride!

Will Leidig
Co-host

Will is a senior undergraduate student at WashU majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Jazz Studies. When he’s not practicing the saxophone or studying for classes, he loves to watch movies with friends and explore the food culture of St. Louis (although the pizza here is not as good as it is in Chicago). He is interested in cancer biology and is currently researching neurosurgical treatments for brain tumors! Master Minds is a good excuse for him to learn from some amazing people and share the experience with others.
