PROFILE
I am originally from Boston, Massachusetts and then Freehold, New Jersey until
finally moving to Georgia ten years ago. Quite a tour, but at least my accent has
stabilized. I am studying Magazine Journalism at the University of Georgia’s Grady

graphic design to work for a news organization. Also I am minoring in Political
science especially interested in Interest Groups and their lobbying power.
