Maddie is an 18 year old freshman at the University of Pittsburgh who is incredibly excited to spend her next four years here. When she's not obsessing over her favorite band of the week, she's obsessing over feminism, obsessing over big sweaters, or obsessing over where to find the best chai lattes within a 5 mile radius.
