Nicole Pimenta Innecco, Reporter

Nicole is a senior and a third-year staffer for The Epitaph. She loves the opportunity the newspaper has given her to engage with her community in unique ways and to learn all the different stories and viewpoints on campus. Outside of the paper, she can often be found falling into rabbit holes of research on random topics or finding new places to explore.
