What has been one of the most rewarding experiences you’ve had here on campus?

Being the Head of Recruitment this past year for AXO is very high on the list. Representing an organization of accomplished and strong women seemed like a daunting task at first, but it has proved to be really rewarding to watch a new pledge class carry on the legacy.

What is some advice you could give underclassmen or future Bucknell students?

Take risks and soak it all in. Do things you originally wouldn’t think you could do because by the time senior year rolls around, you’ll thank yourself for doing them.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Living the Eat, Pray, Love life with some boss lady work thrown in there

3 fun facts about you:

Italian is my first language, I’m deathly afraid of clowns, my MySpace page from middle school still exists (enjoy)

What do you think are important attributes in a strong female leader?

You need to always believe in yourself and what you’re preaching. There’s a reason you are a leader, so own it. If you don’t, who else will? 

What's up Collegiettes! I am so excited to be one half of the Campus Correspondent team for Bucknell's chapter of Her Campus along with the lovely Julia Shapiro.  I am currently a senior at Bucknell studying Creative Writing and Sociology.
