If you’re interested…
I study Political Science and English at Marist University. I read voraciously, having crossed the 100-book-in-a-year threshold in both 2024 and 2025. At Marist, I box, participate in Model UN, make phone calls for our polling institute, am a School of Liberal Arts Representative in the Dean’s Circle, serve as the photography editor of our art/literary magazine, Mosaic, and more!
I take photographs, write, and read stories.
I plan to pursue a career in the publishing industry. I’m also passionate about non-profit work and journalism.

Furthermore…
I have experience working as a caregiver, which encompasses cross-cultural communication and trust building, among other skills like housekeeping and dementia care. I worked as a receptionist, too, which built my skills in customer service, conflict de-escalation, and scheduling. I’m well acquainted with Squarespace, WordPress, Adobe Suite, Microsoft, Google Drive, AI engines, Canva, and more. I’ve begun to learn the art of diplomacy through Model UN, and I can throw a mean punch thanks to intramural boxing.

If you manage to get hold of one, send it to the abandoned mental hospital by the ShopRite in Poughkeepsie, New York. I check for inquiries on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
FAQs
FAQs
What are your primary skills for employment?
I’m known for my oven-baked mac n’ cheese. I’m a great Minecraft builder and run a successful restaurant franchise in Roblox Restaurant Tycoon 3. I can also name every country, but I’m not so good at capitals or maps.
You’re from Pennsylvania. Are you, or have you ever been, Amish or Mennonite?
No, but I like to wave at them when I drive by, and their farm stands are of impeccable quality.
What is your fastest time on the LinkedIn game ‘Queens?’
I’m glad you asked. Fifteen seconds.
Are you fun to hang out with?
I hope so. When I’m hosting, I clean up before and after, and love to provide snacks, drinks, blankets, and anything else my guests need. I even love to cook from scratch for my visitors. In my living room, I keep three blankets folded and one casually cast over the chair, so my visitors know I’m cool but organized, too.
When I’m the guest, I always do my own dishes, help set up, and then clean at the end. I’m respectful of my noise level.
All humans are fallible and imperfect, and I count myself among them… however, I try to exhibit a balance of chillness and togetherness.
Were you a horse girl as a kid?
This is a common misconception. I worked on a farm with horses for a long time, but I was actually in charge of the birds, though I did care for all the species. I was forced to brawl with a miniature horse, but this was in addition to a goat, a llama, and a turkey (this last one on regular occasions). All of these were executed in self-defense, and I haven’t sustained any losses in my amateur ranch animal fighting career.
With what country does France share its longest border?
Brazil.
