Tour the Yale Daily News

A few years ago, the Yale Daily News renovated its building at 202 York Street. Following the completion of the renovation, they published a pamphlet with "before and after" photos. If you haven't seen the inside of the building, check it out here! http://issuu.com/yaledailynews/docs/thenewsrenovates?e=1292683/2725650

On page six, the desk closest to the camera is now mine!

21st birthday celebration!

My roommate and my mother kindly organized for two cakes to be delivered to the newsroom! They were ENORMOUS but delicious. 




This is me after blowing out the candles. 



This is me and Julia, the EIC.



This is me and Amy, the other News Editor!



Then Chris showed up and surprised me!


It was a great birthday :-)





Home for fall break

Hamilton for a few days, and a trip to visit Andover!
