Why did you want to join the Maven Magazine team?

Before I had even committed to the Design and Merchandising program, I was interested in joining MAVEN, which was introduced to me as an interested student at the time as the D&M magazine. Seeing the magazines that students had put out, and seeing them transition into MAVEN was so exciting to me, and I just knew that I wanted to be a part of something so great!

What are some of your interests & hobbies?

Outside of my major, I love to cook, sample all of the amazing food that Philly has to offer, and try out new workout classes!

Favorite place to shop and why?

It's hard to choose just one and I wouldn't say that I have just one favorite! Some of my go-to's are J.Crew, Aritzia, Madewell, Anthropologie, and Free People-- I love mixing more classic basics (in fun colors of course) with fun statement pieces and patterns, pairing something expected with something unique!

Favorite drink & restaurant?

The cosmo from PARC! In my first article published with MAVEN, I tried lots of cosmopolitans all over the city, and came to the expert decision that the one at PARC is absolutely perfect! She is strong, with the perfect touch of sweetness, and a hint of lime. Freshly shaken and just about as cold as ice, it's truly the drink of my dreams.
