ABOUT ME

I'm a senior at New York University, majoring in performance studies and journalism with a minor in psychology. My work has been featured in Her Campus, The Knockturnal, Straus News, and Washington Square News. In my free time, I can be found working on my yearly reading goal or rewatching my favorite rom-coms.
