Abbey Whittington, Entertainment Editor (Spring 2016)

Hello, I’m Abbey Whittington. I am a freshman journalism major with a minor in woman’s studies. I am a lover of music from pop artists like Beyonce to metal bands like the Black Dahlia Murder. Writing has been very important to me for most of my existence, and as the entertainment editor I hope to strengthen my skills.
