Franchesca has been writing for APN for two years at SUNY Plattsburgh, where she majors in magazine journalism, multimedia journalism and public relations. She dreams of writing and campaigning for fashion publications. In her free time, Franchesca nurtures her cactus collection and (attempts) to cuddle with her cat, Sanchez (note both are as cute as they are ferocious). Aside from cactuses and cats, she enjoys shopping, hiking the Adirondacks, bikram yoga and creating various veg-head dishes.
