Hi everyone! My name is Callia, I use she/her pronouns, and I am a first year at Haverford! I’m from San Anselmo, California, a town in Marin County just across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco. I’m interested in being a Cities major, and I’m really excited to learn about the culture and make up of cities in this course, and examine different spaces and their existence. Especially since I have no previous experiences studying urban spaces or related topics, I am looking forward to officially studying a topic I find fascinating. In addition to Cities, I am academically interested in history and, even more generally, the humanities.
In my free time I do art (I’ve danced for many, many years and I choreograph too, and I have lots of visual art projects in progress), embroider occasionally, and I love to listen to music whenever I can. I am always ready to solve a crossword, too. Sustainability, in particular sustainable and ethical clothing, is important and intriguing to me, and I am always looking for new swaps to make or new ways to conserve and consume sustainably and renewably.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone on Zoom and in the classroom!
