Hi! My name is Kaitlin, and I’m a senior at Augustana College. I graduated from Wheaton North High School in 2022. I’ve declared a major in environmental science and minors in Spanish and Multimedia Journalism/Mass Communication, but I’m still exploring other options like WGSS. Outside of class, I like to rollerblade (which I will not be attempting on campus), spend time with my friends, listen to music and read from my ever-growing collection of books, both at home and in the library. I also participate in Her Campus Augustana, Sierra Club, the Gray Matters Collective, and hope to seek out more extracurricular opportunities as I balance my work and school schedules.
I’ve been writing for student publications since middle school, so I’ve covered a wide range of topics over the years. My preferred writing topics include books (reviews, new publications, recommendations… everything!), environmental and social activism, and so much more!
Winter book recs for the romantasy girlies!
