Private tutor in Paramus, NJ
Education
I completed my freshman year of college at Elmira College, where I studied as an English major with a minor in Philosophy. I completed the year with a 3.6 GPA. In the fall, I am transferring to Fairleigh Dickinson University where I will continue to pursue an English degree, along with a Creative Writing degree. Long term, I hope to receive a doctorate degree in English Literature and then branch off into academia.

Hobbies
I have a strong passion for reading; I love classic works of fiction as well as science fiction, historical fiction, philosophical literature, war fiction, fantasy, and more. I enjoy writing in any medium, and hope to build a career out of it. I have a huge love for theatre; I spend a lot of my free time listening to show-tunes, reading plays, or watching musicals. I also like to run, play video games, listen to music, and watch old movies.
