Sophia Gimm
My name is Sophia Gimm, I’m 21 years old, and I’m majoring in English with an emphasis in creative writing. I am super interested in film and television, and I hope to be a screenwriter in the future. In my free time, I love to draw and paint, listen to music, or dabble in some online shopping. I am so excited to be working in the Writing Center, and I hope to offer some help in your classes!

Kaida Irvin
Hey! My name is Kaida Irvin, I’m 20 years old, and I’m from Hoonah, Alaska. I’m majoring in English with an emphasis in creative writing, as well as a minor in pathways to teaching. I plan on becoming a high school English teacher, but I also aspire to be an author. One of my big goals is to have a finished manuscript for a fiction novel before I graduate. In my free time I love to create! I love writing, drawing, crocheting, and jewelry-making. I also love reading and photography. I decided to be a Writing Center tutor because each session will be like a mini English class! I’m so excited to be here, and I hope to see you in the Writing Center!
