Caitlyn is a new member of HerCampus at the University of South Carolina chapter. She's so excited for all the opportunities that will come from joining and hopes to become a writer within the organization! She is originally from Nashville, Tennessee and she has two brothers, one older and one younger.
She is studying Political Science and Spanish with a minor in Social Work. She plans on going abroad in order to become even more proficient at the Spanish language. She's really interested in politics, especially social policy and how it affects Spanish speaking Americans and immigrants. She hopes to work for a nonprofit company in the future that sends and provides aid to marginalized groups of people that don't typically have access to information on policy processes in the United States.
She loves rewatching her comfort shows, such as Ted Lasso and Gravity Falls, whenever she needs a serotonin boost, and is completely comfortable forcing her loved ones to love those shows as much as she does. She also loves switching up her piercing jewelry to match her mood (it's obsessive at this point), going for runs, and watching comedy podcasts that make her laugh out loud during her free time.
