From RhetorClick

I'm a 3rd-year St. Edward's student on the General track in the English Writing and Rhetoric major, though I'm thinking of switching to the Professional Writing track. I'm also minoring in Sociology. I was born and raised right here in Austin, not too far from St. Edward's. I like being involved in campus activities--I'm an officer in the St. Ed's chapter of Sigma Tau Delta (the English Honor Society) and PRIDE at St. Edward's University. I'm also the editor-in-chief of the campus lit mag/creative arts journal, Sorin Oak Review. Some of my favorite things to do in my spare time include hoarding music for my giant iTunes library, writing poetry, watching live theatre, and going on adventures in the wilderness.
