hello
My name is Lilly and I'm originally from Upstate NY studying in Atlanta, GA. I am double majoring in Biology & Chemistry and was studying abroad in Dublin last semester. I grew up in the small, mostly white Christian town in Upstate NY. In high school, I only had a few Jewish friends and I didn't have much interaction with Jewish religion or culture. Last year, I took a writing class about African Americans and their experiences in the US since the mid 19th century. I am excited to learn more about Jewish history and draw connections based on my previous knowledge of the southern United States.
