Anna rode for the Boston College Equestrian Team and wrote for The Heights, the independent student newspaper of Boston College. After writing for the paper, a travel blog called Let's Go, and currently writing for her own personal blog, she loves writing everything from lifestyle and advice articles to mind/body/spirit pieces for the college girl and young adult demographic. When she's not writing or working, Anna also practices yoga and meditation regularly, and spends time with close friends and family.
Likes: writing, meditation, horses and horseback riding, yoga, philosophy, psychology, art, kickboxing, seeing the world, reading new things, trying new things, and adventure.
