I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2016 with a B.A. in English. Through high school and college, I studied design, graphics, photography and architecture, finally taking the upper level studio course at Wesleyan. The project for this studio was a proposal for new student housing for Wesleyan's campus. My final presentation was based on global precedents, administration input and efficient design principals. After graduation, I worked in the office and the field for a design/build firm in Pittsburgh, PA, with a focus on high-end residential renovations. I now live in New York and work in architecture marketing, merging my design and graphic interests with my background in writing.

Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT, US, Bachelors, English
I received my B.A. from Wesleyan with honors in English. My studies culminated with a senior thesis investigating the effect of baseball as a topic on metageneric commentary in literature. This project was built on my interest in baseball as a community building structure in early to mid 20th century Brooklyn, as well as my interest in the hybridity between creative non-fiction and the fantastic. I also studied photography, practicing both film and digital printing; architecture, philosophy, religion, poetry and history.
