Marjolaine is an diligent and super hard working student, poet, actor, teacher, and dancer. One of the best art models I have ever worked with, and the best classmates I have studied with. Her writing style and ability are excellent. Each time I have the opportunity to see her Marjolaine teaches me more about culture, life, languages, and food through her excellent example.
