This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Purchase chapter.


Hometown: 
Born in San Francisco de Macoris, raised in The Bronx.
 
Year and Major: Senior, Journalism
 
When I was little I wanted to be…Batman. Or a detective.
 
Favorite Band: No real favorite band, but I love LCD Soundsystem.
 
In a partner, I look for…Charm! A pretty face and a charming personality is something I can’t resist.
 
Bet you didn’t know…I love hummus. Don’t leave it near me.
 
Favorite part of Purchase? There are those days when you’re looking for something to do, and you happen to drop by a Purchase event and find absolute gems of talent, or something you know you wouldn’t normally see at other schools. Those days are awesome.
 
Campus involvement? I work at the Circulation Desk at the Library, and I’m the Editing and Writing Intern at The Brick.
 
Hub, D-Hall, or Terra Ve? Depends on the mood, but ideally Terra Ve. But really, I get by on exquisite toast and cereal from my kitchen.
 
Outside of class, I like to… read way too much news. Video games and movies are weaknesses too.
 
Excited for Spring?! Can’t wait. I love my fill of parks and museums and the freedom to do essentially anything I want.

Christie is a sophomore journalism major at Purchase College in NY, but she’s a Jersey Girl at heart. When she isn’t studying (or being sarcastic), she spends her summers selling crafty jewelry on Long Beach Island and making coffee for her superiors at Parker and Partner’s Marketing Resources. She’s a sucker for debates, sushi, and a really good book. Her dream job (this week) would be at the Village Voice, but she’d be happy with a byline and paycheck. She hopes to make HerCampus bigger and better than ever at Purchase and is excited for the chance to work with these lovely HC ladies.
