This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Miami (OH) chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Behind the scenes at Her Campus is an amazing crew of writers. Meet a few of them here…

Hey all!!! I am an RA in Ogden Hall, a member of Women of Worship ministries. I just decided to become journalism major this year. I choose to get involved in Her Campus because it’s a great organization that caters to the interest of young college women and is a good place to gain some awesome journalism experience.

I just joined Her Campus this fall, and I’m really excited to be on the writing team! I wanted to join the organization because I have always wanted to write for a magazine. I enjoy literature, writing, music, and dance. I also have just started pursuing photography, and I love it!

At Miami, I am the Student Manager of the Campus’ Writing Center. Through helping others in their writing, I realized that I don’t write enough myself. I joined Her Campus Miami (OH) to write more and to provide a male perspective to the female dominated staff behind Her Campus.

I love Miami (5th of six years here!) and I love to write, so signing up for HC only made sense.  It’s a way of holding onto my English undergrad degree while I study to be a speech therapist!  I’m a rather simple person: my #1 passions are my Catholic faith and family, and my #1 joys are coffee, wine, and porch-sitting (perhaps all at once) with people I love.  I pretend to have some style sense by wearing loud earrings.  I prefer flip-flops to rain boots when it’s pouring outside.  I believe in a one-day-at-a-time kind of living. 
Happy reading!

On Campus I am a member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority as well as recently joining the Her Campus Miami (OH) team! Her Campus is my first venture into any type of journalism and I really love it. Outside of school I ride horses competitively and at a barn in Oxford. I also keep two horses at home in Columbus.
