Kelsey Dearstyne

Ithaca '29

A first year English major at Ithaca College, Kelsey is delighted to be a part of HerCampus! In her high school years, she was the head of Dead Poets Society club, a chief editor on the school's award-winning literary magazine, and an avid creative writer. For her senior internship, she spent a month acting as a slop pile reader for a literary agent as well as working as a teacher's assistant for her seventh grade English teacher. In addition to spending all her free time cooped up in her room with a book or a manuscript, Kelsey is very involved with theater, guitar, swimming, swimming, and discussing anything pop culture.

Writing for HerCampus has been the ambition for her ever since first discovered the website. As a lover of pop music, sitcoms, and whatever has been trending online, she has found herself to have strong opinions on what she enjoys. From the girl who wrote an essay on Billie Eillish's Happier Than Ever to now, she is thrilled to continue writing about topics she's passionate about.
