  • Staci once sat in Ariana Grande's seat at the Radio Disney Music Awards. It was an honor.
  • She started listening to K-pop in the 2010s and was so frustrated with the lack of subbed content, she decided to learn Korean. Who knew being a dedicated ARMY would pay off in the long run?
  • A longtime fan of pop music, she sang the lead single off the r/Popheads mixtape in 2017.

Experience

Staci spent her teenage years binge-reading Teen Vogue, updating a now-defunct WordPress blog, and dreaming of a career in entertainment. After graduating from UCLA, she worked as a tutor and kids' yoga instructor before she decided to embrace her love of pop culture and enter the world of freelance entertainment journalism in 2022. As a writer, she's recommended the best cozy fantasy books, dissected Olivia Rodrigo's tour fashion choices, and explained the latest TikTok trends for We Got This Covered and The Mary Sue. When she's not writing, you can find her singing or hanging out with her cat, Tango.

Education

Staci has a bachelor's degree in linguistics and Asian languages and cultures from UCLA.
