Autumn is a Journalism and Religious Studies major from Westchester, New York. During the 2025-2026 academic year, Autumn volunteered with The Village at Ithaca, a nonprofit organization that provides resources and facilities for local families and students, through anti-racist programming. She helps run their social media and volunteers at their community events. In the spring, Autumn studied abroad in Florence, Italy, where she volunteered with a local preschool and assisted in teaching English and music. Over the summer she interned with the Park Center for Independent Media, where she focused on independent news infrastructures in New Jersey and collaborating with nonprofits and local publications. She is currently continuing her work with The Village at Ithaca and is interested in learning more about social justice and ways to provide information through social media and collaborative journalism. In addition, Autumn is volunteering at the Elizabeth Ann Clune Montessori School of Ithaca as a one-to-one teacher assistant. On campus, Autumn runs for Ithaca College’s cross-country team, is the Vice President of Communications for the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ), and is a staff writer for Her Campus, where she writes movie and music reviews.
