Hi hello! I am a senior environmental studies major with minors in education and applied linguistics at St. Olaf College in Minnesota. I am passionate about representing voices in student journalism, as well as fun comics and cool movies (along with the color green, sending letters, an Oxford comma, and many trinkets). I am excited to write stories that I hope you enjoy!
