About Me
My name is Elizabeth Buckley, and I'm currently a freshman in Pratt. I've lived in Durham, NC for my whole life, and now I get to spend the next four years here, too. Exciting, right? Really though, I couldn't be happier at Duke. I know I'll have many great experiences here, and I can't wait to see what's in store for me.
