On home…

I am from Fairfax County, Virginia, about twenty minutes from DC. At home, I live with my parents, and I have an Australian shepherd named Meggie who is three years old. My family spends time together by listening to music, watching movies, and doing puzzles. I love hanging out with my friends, exploring Georgetown, and seeing concerts at the Birchmere. 

 

 

On Emma…

I learned about Emma Willard through a family friend who graduated in 1979. My first impression of Emma was how beautiful the campus was. I was mesmerized and could not wait to see all of it.  Emma is special because of its community. Emma is one of the most welcoming places I have ever been in regard to all aspects. I have been able to grow so much in such a short amount of time and learn about my new strengths every day. 

 

On journalism…

I am most passionate about English and journalism. I got into this by reading at a young age and realizing I really enjoy writing about what I was reading. I also love talking to people, which sparked my interest in journalism. I have learned that writing is an ever-changing process, and I will always improve. I hope to learn more about the different paths I can take regarding journalism. Sports journalism and human interest stories are topics I look forward to exploring. 

 

On skiing…

Now that I attend Emma, skiing is a new hobby I would like to explore. I really enjoy trying new things I have never done before and seeing where it goes. Sports are also a major factor in my life, so skiing is a great option to try with all of the snow that comes. 

 

On Revels…

I am most looking forward to experiencing Revels in my first year at Emma Willard. It will be so much fun finding out what role each senior has and getting to see them perform.
