About Me

I am a current sophomore at Vassar College. As a student at a liberal arts college, academic writing is a major component of my studies. I am proficient in MLA, APA, and Chicago styles. I am currently majoring in geography and minoring in biology. My current track allows me to study and write in both the hard sciences (biology and earth science) and the social sciences (geography and political science). I have taken numerous courses in each discipline, so I am relatively knowledgeable about each of these fields, although I am not a working professional. I can easily write and edit related pieces, however. I also write my own fitness blog, and I can work on any topics related to health, sports, and nutrition science. I have been published in the Albany Times Union and write for my college's newspaper, The Miscellany News. Writing is one of my passions - ever since I was young, I would write my own stories and poems. I have had years to practice my writing skills, and I would be happy to help in any way that I can.
