Hello! My name is Anna Staltari and I am a sophomore at Skidmore College where I am studying English, Theater, and Arts Administration. Previously, I attended Morris Knolls High School as a part of Morris County's Academy for the Performing Arts, where I studied vocal performance and theater. In addition to the arts, I am very passionate about community service. I have been a Girl Scout for the past thirteen years, and have earned my Bronze, Silver, and Gold Awards, making me the highest achieving rank possible. I also enjoy teaching a variety of performing arts classes at a local studio and working as a camp counselor for several different summer camps. In my free time, I enjoy reading, baking, painting, doing puzzles, playing with my dog, and spending time with my family.
