Come chat with her about tech's impact on society, local news, or Korean restaurant recommendations!

Jessie Dalman

Meredith Shell

Meredith is a senior from Los Altos, CA focusing on European history, with a minor in Theater & Performance Studies. She spends most of her free time working in the theater, either as an actor or a stage manager. She hopes to combine her historical work with her creative interests after Stanford, in whatever form that takes.

Naomi Subotnick

She loves drawing and painting, hiking, reading detective novels, and cats.

Jack Virnich

Jack is a  junior from Denver, Colorado. His emphasis is in East Asian history, and is particularly interested in the cross-section between history and geography. He is also a Film Studies Major, and often uses film as a tool for exploring and better understanding history.

Lena Zlock

Hailing from the City of Brotherly Love, and wishing she was in Paris eating baguettes, Lena is a junior majoring in History and French. She lives for 18th-century France, and thus her social interactions usually consist of misquoting Rousseau. When she's not geeking out about enlightenment and revolution, Lena can be found conducting digital humanities research, performing at the theater, or petting a dog (ask about her dreams for a corgi army).
