About me!

I am a third year student pursuing my Bachelors of Science at Rochester Institute of Technology in New Media Interactive Development. This major is unique in that it allows me to explore topics in UX/UI design, development, and research. I learn coding languages including JavaScript, C#, HTML, and CSS, as well as design software like Figma, Canva, and Spline, and to tie it all together, I learn about user psychology and research methods.

I will also be doing RIT’s +1 accelerated MBA program. I have already begun taking business classes for this program including courses in marketing, organization behavior, and web business.

Finally, to round out my education, I am pursuing two minors. One in business administration and the other in American Sign Language and Deaf Cultural Studies. I am passionate about accessibility and enjoy learning about it in general, but also about how to incorporate it into web technology.

Originally from Boston, I am a big fan of the Red Sox and grew up playing softball and golf. Now living in Rochester and having studied abroad (Zagreb, Croatia), I value our wide world and would be willing to relocate for work.

In my free time, I enjoy reading (I love Greek mythology), playing golf, and hanging out with my sorority sisters in Alpha Xi Delta.

Something that motivates me is giving back to the community. I love volunteering, whether that be walking an elder to church, organizing a food drive, or doing activities with younger children.

I also love fashion and you will always find me with a bow in my hair and my nails decorated for the upcoming holiday!
