Curious Cardinals Mentor

Freddie S.

PRO TIP:

When evaluating whether a mentor would be a good match for your student keep in mind that the greatest leading indicator of success is how well a mentor and their mentee get along.

Questions to ask yourself:

Would the student find this person inspiring?
Do they share any interests, hobbies, or lived experiences?

Freddie S. (IN A NUTSHELL)

Freddie is a senior at Harvard studying History, Literature, and Economics, and she's passionate about all things comedy and writing! She began performing standup and improv in Singapore at age 10 and has since continued performing in Boston, New York, and London. Freddie also writes comedic articles for a variety of online magazines, including Reductress, the Harvard Lampoon, and the feminist comedy zine she co-founded with fellow undergraduates. In her time at Harvard, Freddie has served as president of the Standup Comic Society and an associate editor of the campus satirical newspaper. At Curious Cardinals, she’s is excited to help students find their own comedic voice and learn that passion drives growth: anyone can learn to be an expert in an area they love!
