Jordan is a senior this year (finally) and she is super excited to spend her last year causing chaos among the new staff writers. She enjoys long walks to the fridge and occasionally to the microwave to make some Mac-n-Cheese. She’s hopeful that somehow she will get into college and attend nursing school at the University of North Florida. She loves her gray tabby cat more than anything in the world and will miss him more than her family when she jets off to college, or to live in an underground bunker in Iceland, whichever seems most logical.
