Georgetown University

I am currently a sophomore at Georgetown University studying Philosophy and Psychology. A native Houstonian, I have a great deal of Texas pride but also enjoy international travel and love meeting new people. I’m extremely interested in technology, innovation, and the ways they can be used to improve education and social interactions. On a different note, I’m a huge fan of Modern Family, SNL, How I Met Your Mother, and The Big Bang Theory and am really excited to be a part of NGJ!
