Summary

I am currently a college freshman at Ramapo College of New Jersey. I originally started my college career as a Theater Major with a concentration in Acting. However, I quickly realized that my love for animals and the environment was very strong and switched my major to Environmental Sciences. I intend on transferring college my junior year to continue an education in Animal Sciences. I love animals, I currently have a dog and a guinea pig, and one day hope to assist in helping the environment to ensure that all animals are safe and healthy. In high school I was a cheerleader, competitive dancer, and a part of my schools drama club and performed in many shows.
