I am currently a senior at Miami University majoring in Film Studies, English Literature, and Philosophy. I have lived in Strongsville (suburb of Cleveland) my whole life, and I am very proud to be from Cleveland. One of my proudest accomplishments is having participated in the 49th Telluride Film Festival's Student Symposium, a program where I, along with 50 other outstanding students from all over the world, had the opportunity to meet a wide array of filmmakers, film archivists, and festival programmers, as well as view over 20 films screened at the festival. I am also the founder of the Western Center Classic Film Series, which showcases films from the beginning of cinema up through the 1970s from all genres and countries.
