Chandler/InaWriterHello! My name is Ina (I also go by Chandler), I'm 18, and I'm from the San Fransisco Bay Area. I'm currently a student at UC Berkeley, and I hope to major in business, econ, or data science and minor in Spanish. I'm genderfluid and bi, but most often I will call myself "queer." I dance, swim, and watch more tv and movies than what is probably good for me. I thoroughly identify as a nerd, and if there is one thing I love it is using what I know to help others in life (and political activism, but tomato tomato).

My Top 3 Articles
1) Losing a Friend (by Kenzie) - society overemphasizes romantic relationships and rarely makes space for people to value and cultivate platonic ones, or deal with their loss in a healthy and productive way, but Kenzie does.
2) Counting Calories (by Joey) - having struggled with disordered eating myself, seeing healthy alternatives presented in a supportive manner from someone who understands what it's like to feel wrong in your body helps so much. I only wish I read this article three years ago instead of today.
3) Finding a Love of Reading (by Tasha) - as reading turned into a chore and free time in my life dissolved into nothingness, I too lost a passion for reading: even when I wanted, I could barely finish a single book. This article helped me find a path forward, either to put in the effort to reconnect with my 10 year old book-monster self, or to take that same passion elsewhere in life.
