Stephanie Ng
Assistant Editor
stephanie.t.y.ng.16@dartmouth.edu
Stephanie calls both Hong Kong and Boston her home. Quarantined from city lights and cigarette smoke, she now studies neuroscience, English, and visual art in a sleepy, four-season town that smells perpetually like Royal Pine Car Freshener. When she's not scribbling, doodling, or self-caffeinating, Stephanie slips into the corner of a cafe to people-watch.

Stephanie's middle school math teacher once told her that if she wanted to express herself she should write. Although she was referring to Stephanie's disruptive behavior, Stephanie took the advice to heart. At Dartmouth, she has been fortunate enough to pursue her interest in writing and transform it into more than a pastime.

nate.kania@gmail.com
Nate Kania is unaware of whether or not he should be writing in the third person. He would, however, like you to know that he was born and raised in Lincoln, Massachusetts, which is a small Boston suburb with some very nice stone walls. Currently, Nate Kania attends Dartmouth College, where he rows and writes, and doesn't do much else, although he is always making lists of things he should be doing, and would be doing, had he the time. He enjoys long walks on the beach, and has a healthy respect for Golden Retrievers.

Katie is a recent Dartmouth graduate whose college education has found her specializing in a dangerously narrow set of critical skills. After she began to analyze Animal House scene-by-scene for her school paper, she decided it was time to stray from her computer screen and explore the Upper Valley to write her own stories. She has previously analyzed Joe Biden parodies and successful Hollywood facial prosthetics for Slate.

elainearichards@gmail.com
Member of the Class of 2014 at Dartmouth College. From Connecticut. Has three siblings and a cat. Laina describes herself as a student, relying heavily on the fact that she has at least one more year before she really needs to know what to write in a short bio. Thus far, her studies in English and Psychology have been shaped by a fascination with the stories of others.

A recent graduate of Dartmouth College, Catherine Treyz can often be found rummaging through dusty archives, scribbling new typeface designs on legal pads, or listening to big band jazz tunes.
