This week I got the chance to interview and get to know Alesha Barrett a little bit better. She’s the Senior Editor for Her Campus. But next semester, she’ll be stepping into the role of Co-Editor-In-Chief. I asked her about the holidays and what her favorite fictional character was. Read on to find out more about Alesha Barrett!

I hate taking risks although I’m so involved on campus.
What’s your favorite part of the holiday season?
Listening to Christmas carols and watching Christmas movies non-stop!

I like to watch suspense dramas, romance movies and comedies.
Who’s your favorite fictional character?
