  • French Minor

I'm double majoring in Economics and Law, Criminal Justice, and Society, with a minor in French. I plan to enroll in the business school next year to also pursue a major in Human Resources Management.In addition to academics, I'm very excited about becoming a part of the SGB Elections Committee for the 2024-2025 school year. I am incredibly passionate about fostering an inclusive, engaging campus atmosphere and am eager to get involved and make a positive impact within the student body. Outside of academics, I enjoy reading, exploring different genres of music, and advocating for social justice issues. I am dedicated to staying engaged with the campus community and look forward to taking on more leadership roles. I am determined to make a positive impact both academically and through involvement on campus. With a passion for justice, economics, and creating a supportive environment for students, I aim to bring these interests together in future leadership roles.

If you were Pitt chancellor for the day, what's the first thing that you would do?

If I were Pitt chancellor for the day, the first thing I’d do is declare an official “Pitt Pajama Day” where everyone, from students to faculty, would be encouraged to attend classes, meetings, and even athletic practices in their comfiest pajamas. Roc would roll around campus delivering hot chocolate, and there’d be a massive campus-wide pillow fight on the Cathedral lawn at noon. Best pajama outfit gets free tuition for the semester!

What's your hot take?

Books should be judged by their covers—publishers put a lot of thought into cover designs, and a great cover usually means a great story. Trust the vibes!

If you could be a food, what food would you be and why?

Penne alla vodka. It's just really fun to say.

What's your favorite place on campus?

My favorite place is definetly WPU, I practically live there.
