Confident, smart, ambitious. Claims she calculated Noele's misfortune this year using her birth chart, and she seems interested in getting back together. Flint *Unavailable Route Freelance writer. Noele's college friend—though that changed later. Dog *Loyal Companion Noele's partner at the station.…
