Claire Smith, Editor-in-Chief

Hey reader! My name is Claire Smith and I am the co-Editor-in-Chief of the Dart with Rachel Robinson! This is my third and final year on staff and all I can say is that it has been a life changing three years. Some of the loves of my life are classic rock and jazz: from Jimi Hendirx and George Harrision, to Charlie Parker and Thelonious Monk. In the future, you may find me on capitol hill or across the world studying international relations. All of my staff bios to this point have a very inspirational quote, so i’ll leave you with this one: “I turned myself into a pickle, Morty! Boom! Big reveal! I’m a pickle!”
