Welcome to Harvard - your new home! Although I’ve been at Harvard for a while now, I’m still excited to continue exploring Cambridge and Boston along with all of you. I am currently a PhD student in the Department of the Classics working on a dissertation about the impact of political transitions on literary production in ancient Rome. Originally from Princeton, New Jersey, I spent four years in Philadelphia as an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied classics and minored in psychology. When I'm not studying dead languages, I enjoy frequenting J.P. Licks (our local ice cream shop), listening to podcasts (I'm always looking for new recommendations!), late night "procrasti-baking" (my specialties include cookies and brownies) and taking long walks with my proctor paw-tner, Julius (a cat who accidentally ended up in a dog's body). I can't wait to meet all of you!
