Katerina Plescia

Journalist

United States

Hello, my name is Katerina Plescia. In May, I will be graduating from Pace University with a Bachelor's degree in Digital Journalism. Writing has encapsulated my life since reading the entire series of Nancy Drew at the age of 9. My childhood passion has morphed into a career goal to pursue a life of writing what I love and putting a small part of myself into all of my work.

Please visit my Linkedin and blog for the upcoming Pace University documentary, "For the Love of Food".
