Abby Paeth, Editor-in-Chief

My name is Abby Paeth and I am a senior studying journalism. I am also pursuing minors in English and public relations. I have been working at the DI since my freshman year writing for the features section about diversity and inclusivity. When I’m not at the DI, I’m likely running at the gym or watching old Audrey Hepburn movies. I’m really excited to spend this year as editor-in-chief with such an incredible staff!
