An amateur world traveler, Michelle is a junior English major from Bell Gardens California currently residing in London. As an avid reader and a sucker for Victorian era romantic novels, Michelle inevitably decided to spend this semester studying abroad in England.  Michelle is currently balancing her time between reading the great works that shaped the western canon and feeding ducks at the local park. Back at Yale, Michelle coordinates events for MEChA de Yale, participates in Oye (the Latino spoken word group), works as a Davenport Master’s Aide and exercises while watching Keeping up with the Kardashians. Despite loving genuinely good, critically acclaimed music, Michelle knows no greater pleasure than listening to Justin Bieber on Saturday afternoons.
