Maryn is the Assistant Essays Editor and Pubcast Co-Host for the Pub. She was born and raised in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and misses the mountains. Her passion for social justice brought her to the Chicago area, and she is excited to use her studies in Sociology, International Relations, and Journalism to help people as an attorney and activist.  When not working on schoolwork, Maryn can be found in a cozy chair with a good book or TV show or hanging out with friends. She loves to travel and connect with people, and looks forward to using the Pub to connect people with each other across perspectives and experiences.
