The Sunday Times | Model student: Active student appears in magazine ads, writes about fashion and style by Caitlin Heaney (staff writer, The Times-Tribune)

Talk about hitting home! I am deeply humbled and honored by Caitlin Heaney West’s profile of me in my hometown newspaper, The Sunday Times—along with (surprise) interviewees Professor J. Timothy Cannon, Ph.D., Alec Friedman of Dossier Journal, and my mom Janie Alperin’s enormously kind quotes featured therein.

Intelligent Design | The Weekender, Pennsylvania

It was such a pleasure to be interviewed in my hometown (well, on the phone) by the brilliant and delightful Stephanie DeBalko for The Weekender, Northeastern Pennsylvania’s arts and entertainment weekly newspaper.

I cannot even begin to relate how heartening it is to bear witness to Scranton’s cultural renaissance. Moreover, I am tremendously grateful for the opportunity to juggle my work in New York with volunteering (including with the Organizing for America Pennsylvania campaign, APSSC, CSA Executive Committee, USPB N&V, and College Democrats), county civic initiatives, and academic studies out of the city. Thanks, world!

Backyard Bill | Julia Frakes: Pennsylvania

I had the honor of shooting with the brilliant, talented Bill Gentle (also represented by Next) this past May for a Backyard Bill feature, which was just published this week.

We escaped the city for my home state of Pennsylvania, and even shot a few frames around Hillside Farms—a wonderful nonprofit educational farm that played site to many fond childhood memories and whose original proprietors are dear family friends and former neighbors. (Check out their community-supported work here!)

A big thanks to Bill for making the schlep out to the country! I had a ball prowling around PA with you; it’s a true honor to be featured amongst such fascinating folks (and friends!) on your site.

One of the first moments that I can clearly recollect took place in this very room, just across the bridge from New Hope, PA. It involved sipping on a Shirley Temple and doodling with a fresh box of Crayola 8ct. crayons while on a roadtrip with my big-hearted grandparents—a.k.a. “Franny” and (dearly missed) “Poppy”

I had intended to concoct an impressive yarn – involving a hobo and a lacrosse stick and/or canoe paddle – that demonstrated my intrinsic bravery and moxie and which culminated with a plucky one-liner to the tune of “if you think this nosebleed looks bad, you should have seen the other person”… but alas, it would have been so far-fetched and altogether unrealistic that nobunny in their right mind would have been convinced.

Long story short, I’m a klutz. Oliverpup was alarmed. Wegmans employees were disgusted. End of story.
