Ashleigh Kendrick, Assistant Features Editor

Hey y’all! I’m Ashleigh, the assistant features editor of The Daily Illini. I’m a journalism major, but I am on a pre-law track. I hope to be an attorney one day. This is my second year with The Daily Illini, and I’ve made so many friends and learned so much! I joined in Spring 2021 as a staff writer for the features section. In Spring 2022, I became the assistant features editor. I love Texas Roadhouse rolls, strawberry Dr. Pepper and I’m an avid Sims 4 player. If you have any questions about writing for the DI, you can reach me at [email protected].
