Hello! My name is Abby and I am an English major from Princeton with minors in European Cultural Studies, Theater, and Music Theater, and my main passion academically is the theories underlying contemporary and classical performances! In this I have been awarded over $10,000 for independent research by the university and a variety of awards for my academic work. This allowed me to travel for the entirety of the summer of 2019 doing research for my three different theses projects, an experience abroad that has completely changed and shaped my life! Moving forward, I’ll continue to work on my acting and pursue a professional career in the industry. I have tutored throughout high school and have mainly focused on writing and reading comprehension, and I love working with students and seeing them find their own voices in their writing and making their thoughts and arguments more clear. When I’m not in class or tutoring, I spend a lot of time reading thriller novels, or watching The Office over and over again!
