In addition to writing for Her Campus, Allison Marietta is pursuing her MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults and Fiction at The New School in New York City. She started her Her Campus journey at Saint Louis University, where she graduated as a softball student-athlete in 2025, but decided one campus was not enough to suffice her passion for storytelling. She finds inspiration in her everyday adventures as a writer, runner, explorer, and human being.
