Why did you choose your particular program at Arcadia?

The combination of a two-year low-residency program, a small cohort, and a residency abroad is a perfect fit for me.

What do you hope to accomplish during your time here?
It would be a dream come true to master writing in a creative and professional capacity.
What do you do when you’re not in class?
I am an avid birder and gardener; I support W.E. Connect, an informal group of women entrepreneurs/artists; I love to hike the splendidly varied terrains of our national parks with my family; I write poetry and fiction.
