Hello! I have just finished my last year at SILS. I've had an amazing experience at Pratt and I've met some fantastic people here. Next year, I will be attending the University of Oxford, studying for a masters in the social science of the internet.

I graduated from Williams College in 2010 with a Bachelor's in Art History. Currently, I work as a legal assistant at Seward & Kissel LLP and volunteer at the Nolen Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
