Why did you come to FMU? It was 7 minutes from my house...also my mom would have had daily heart attacks if I left.

Why did you want to work for The Patriot? I wanted to help be a part of the face of FMU and develop my photography.

Interesting Fact: My mom was born in Greece, so I'm half Greek! I can't really speak it...but I can cook it!

Favorite Candy: Sour Patch Kids, especially the blue ones

The printing policy introduced last semester has saved enough paper to equal at least 100 trees,

printing has reduced by 72 percent, helping decrease spending and FMU’s environmental footprint.
