Local rower and sophomore Alia Arafeh is starting her first year on El Gato’s staff. She hopes to use her position as Culture Editor to force her love of face masks and hair products on her fellow students. When not rowing, talking about rowing, or reading rowing magazines, Alia can be found crying over BoJack Horseman on Netflix, or fueling her caffeine addiction — which she insists she doesn’t have — with homemade iced coffee.
