Hi! My name is Emily. I'm from a small town in Connecticut, now attending University of New Hampshire. I came from a pretty large high school where many towns came together. I had taken different courses like UCONN U.S. History, AP Psychology, and Human Development. I ended high school apart of the National Honor Society with a 3.7 GPA, and as a 4 year varsity athlete. Now here in college as a sophomore, I'm majoring in Psychology with a plan to become a school psychologist.

Some of my professional background includes the jobs I have worked. My first job was a hostess/food runner at a restaurant called The Windjammer in Rhode Island. Which then lead me to another food service job for the next 2 years at Hank's Dairy Bar. I worked as a window girl taking orders, handing out food, and serving ice cream. My previous summer job from over this past summer was working at a sandwich shop called Break'n Bread. I would take orders, make sandwiches, and prepare all sorts of different foods.

Some of my personal interests include playing soccer. I have been playing soccer since I was 5. I grew up playing on club teams, premier teams, and my high school team. I met some of my lifelong best friends through playing soccer, so I will forever cherish it. Another personal interest of mine is photography. Growing up, my mom had a Canon EOS camera and would let me play around with it. For 2 years in high school I had also taken photography classes. I loved to find different areas, angles, and objects to set up and take photos of. My last personal interest is going on walks. I love to go on walks all around and take in the environment around me. My favorite time to go on them is at sunset down by the beach.
