Rachel Amarille (she/her) is a New Jersey native currently studying Journalism and Sociology in her Senior year at Rowan University. Like many of her Gen-Z peers, she spent too much of her middle and high school years on Tumblr, Instagram, and other corners of the internet, which has, at last, finally proved to be useful in the form of the curious pursuit of information. In her free time she can be found taking the train up to New York to catch a Broadway show, writing, reading, baking, furiously writing Letterboxd reviews of movies, or talking her friends’ ears off about her newest and noisiest Spotify discoveries.
