Jess Benninger

Editor-In-Chief

Hi, I’m Jess! I’m a senior double majoring in English and psychology, and I specialize in journalism and communications. This is my fourth year writing for La Vie, and I’m looking forward to continuing the role of editor-in-chief. La Vie has been one of the highlights of my college experience, and I can’t wait to see what else we can accomplish this year.

Outside of La Vie, I’m the president of LVC’s chapter of Gamma Sigma Sigma, a writing mentor, and an orientation assistant. I’m also a member of Sigma Tau Delta International English Honor Society and Psi Chi International Honor Society in Psychology. I love hiking, reading and spending time with friends and family in my free time.
