Why did you choose Manhattan? I knew a lot about the school from my sister who is an alumni of the college. Although I said that I would never come here, being the annoying little sister I am, it was inevitable. I loved the school since we first moved my sister in her freshman year. It really feels like home.

 

What extra-curriculars are you a part of? I am on the swim team and also write for Her Campus and for The Quadrangle.

 

 

Why did you decide to run for the Editor-in-Chief position? Being a journalism major and seeing my sister succeed during her time with The Quadrangle, running for editor-in-chief was always in the back of my mind. But I officially decided to run when some of my editors suggested that I would make a great editor-in-chief and even nominated me for the position. I felt so honored that they believed so much in me and I did not want to let them down. Having other people think your right for the job is much more gratifying than wanting the job for yourself.

 

What was your reaction when you found out you won? Happy, of course! I was so nervous, everyone wanted to come up to me afterwards to congratulate me and I didn’t want them to notice how clammy my hands were. The texts that I sent out to friends and family afterwards were full of typos because I was too excited — not very journalistic of me. 

 

Where do you hope to see yourself after you’ve graduated? Employed.

 

What has been your best memory since you’ve been at MC? While I’ve made some great memories so far, I hope the best is yet to come.
