About Me:

I am a 23-year old living in South Philadelphia who works and studies at Drexel University. I am currently enrolled in their graduate Library Science program and aspire to be a public librarian here in the city. I've been actively engaged in politics since high school, and helped to start a highly active and visible organization called Progressive Student Alliance as an undergraduate at Rutgers University in New Jersey. After graduation, I worked as a union organizer with SEIU and as a canvasser with NJ Citizen Action. Besides politics, I enjoy reading, writing, listening to music and going to shows. I'm also learning how to make websites, which is something I'm excited about doing. I'm willing to aid the work of the organization in any way I can.
