Erika Marando

While studying at WLU I majored in Law & Society and minored in History and Criminology. I am outgoing and organized, and I enjoy meeting new people and learning new things. I am always on the lookout to expand my horizon. Many of my previous jobs have revolved around the service industry therefore I am very comfortable meeting with a variety of people and can quickly think on my feet.
