Manhattan ’27
Irene Papakanakis is an Adolescent Education major with a concentration in English. In the future she plans on becoming a professor and publishing her own novel.

Irene has loved dance for the majority of her life, beginning with tap dancing at the age of three. Since then, she has pursued this passion through the various theater productions she has been a part of. Irene was born and raised in New York, which only promoted her love for theater with Broadway so close by. Along with her dreams of becoming a teacher and writer, Irene dreams of performing on Broadway some day. Irene also greatly enjoys reading, which all began when she read Harry Potter!

Irene is thrilled to be a member of Manhattan College’s chapter of Her Campus and hopes to share her excitement with readers, bringing joy to people’s days through something she loves, writing!
