Atalanta Pendragon
Atalanta is a 30-something undergraduate student in Anthropology at the University of Rhode Island. As she works to complete the rest of her Bachelor’s degree as a Community College of RI transfer student, Atalanta is also pursuing her personal development through creative hobbies, art, and content creation.
Atalanta’s study of Anthropology focuses on fostering a deeper understanding of humanity past and present. She recognizes that reconciliation of the past can transpire through assimilating a living, vibrant histories which in turn draws out the wisdom from those that have lived before and could lead to building upon what came before in more equitable, effaceable, sustainable ways.
Atalanta also aims to cultivate & encourage the integration of the past which she believes is vital in healing the present social strifes for a better collective future.
