Irene McGee

Then: Irene's acerbic wit is her trademark, and her matter-of-fact delivery is indicative of her hometown of Pleasant Valley, New York. Twenty-two-year-old Irene is a star student, but her battle with Lyme disease has made it tough for her to find her academic niche: Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. is the fourth school she's attended.
