About

I am currently a student at University of North Texas pursuing a Bachelor's in English and Language Arts with a Secondary Teaching Certification. My goal is to earn my Master's after I graduate and later my Doctorate so that I can teach on a collegiate level. I am half Greek on my mother side and love to travel when I can. I have always had an immense passion for the arts. I am a local artist and business owner on the side, and also an aspiring author working on my first book series.

I love the Victorian Gothic era and have always been an admirer of Shakespeare and Edgar Allan Poe among many others.
