She has also been on the cover of Long Island Beauty Magazine and SHU’s very own Pioneer Magazine. We asked the rising star a few questions about being a SHU student and what the future holds:
What is your biggest goal to achieve at SHU?
My biggest goal at SHU is to leave a mark in everything I am involved in on campus. I want to make a difference in my sorority as well as the theatre arts program!
What are you doing this summer in terms of your modeling and acting career?
This summer I plan to move to California for a few weeks to pursue my acting and singing career. All my life I’ve dreamed of being an actress and living in LA, so this summer I’m going to take a lot of chances on making that dream really become reality.
What was your favorite memory at SHU?
My favorite memory at SHU was being asked to perform at Kappa Delta’s annual “Shamrock the Runway” event. I got to sing and put on a mini performance for all of greek life and that was incredible.
Where do you hope to see yourself in 10 years?
In 10 years, I hope to see myself making a difference in the world through acting and singing. My goal in life is to pursue my dreams, but also to impact the lives of others while doing so.
