I grew up in New Jersey surrounded by farms and nature reserves, which instilled a great respect for the natural world in me. This lead to me developing a great interest in leading a more sustainable lifestyle for both the Earth...and my wallet. I love cooking and baking, especially vegetarian and vegan dishes. I also love being outside! I frequently go for hikes and I work on the Bard Farm. I also play for the women's rugby team at Bard.
