The binder-wielding future captain · The Bullpen

Amy Santiago (The binder-wielding future captain) is a character in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, part of The Bullpen. Amy Santiago has a life calendar, a binder for her binders, and one ambition burning at the centre of it all: become the youngest captain in NYPD history.
