For her 8th birthday, she celebrated by visiting the National Gallery of Art and eating fresh pain au chocolat. Claudia’s love for history, especially the visual arts, led her to complete an undergraduate minor in Art History. She is currently saving up for a masters.
Claudia lived in Spain, Italy, China, and Egypt for 7 years before returning to the US in 2022. Before joining Unscripted, she taught English abroad and worked for a human rights NGO.
