All About LaraJean
Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana-- with a substantial stint in the Washington D.C. area-- Lara Jean is now living and studying theatre in New York City! Even though she clearly could've majored in Anthropology or something after acing all of her World History AP Exams, she recently graduated (woot woot!!) from Marymount Manhattan College with a degree in Theatre Performance and a Minor in Musical Theatre. She was also really cool as a baby.

She Believed She Could, So She Did
MAY 2019
She did it! This past May, Lara Jean graduated from Marymount Manhattan College with a BA in Theater Performance and a Minor in Musical Theater!!! The past four years have been a lot of work, laughs, and monthly Metro cards, but she cannot wait to continue spending all of her money printing resumes and sheet music at her local Staples®, but now with the added dignity of a college degree.
