Bio
I’m Erin Connelly (she/they/he) and I’m a Pacific Northwest native. I fell in love with Portland during my childhood visits to the city and am endlessly excited that I now get to live here! At Lewis & Clark, I study English (and hover around the theater and classics departments). You’re likely to find me riding my scooter to class, reading in the library, working in the rose garden, or chatting with friends in Fowler! Over the summers, I work as an actor with Original Practice Shakespeare Festival and spend my free time hiking, swimming, writing, and caring for my plants. Once I graduate, I plan to pursue higher education with the goal of becoming a teacher or a professor someday!
