Hey everyone, I’m Hillary. I’m a freshman from Washington D.C. and I’m primarily interested in Psychology and Neuroscience. I am thrilled to be at Bryn Mawr in such an intellectually stimulating place with so many interesting people. I am Irish and Romanian by heritage, with 2 very politically active parents (hence I live in D.C.). I come from a family that believes that education and intellect are the most valuable preparation for life, along with the desire to always keep questioning and learning about the world around me.

I believe in evolution as Darwin saw it (more or less) and the scientific explanation of the beginning of time—The Big Bang. However, an amusing creation story is that of Greek Mythology, which personifies certain objects and concepts like Earth and Love. It’s an interesting perspective.
