- Pearl is a freelance features writer for The List.
- She has written articles for a handful of publications and media outlets, and her work has covered a diverse variety of topics (including how the Covid-19 pandemic impacted abortion access, what specific sexual side effects SSRI users may encounter, and the difficulties that a younger generation faces in balancing digital activism with self-care).
- While studying at Syracuse University, Pearl was the editor-in-chief of Jerk Magazine, Syracuse's premier student-run publication. As EIC, she published four physical issues a year and oversaw the creation of much more digital and social content.
Experience
Since she was young, Pearl has had a passion for writing, which led her to study Magazine, News, and Digital Journalism at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University — one of the best journalism programs in the country. While studying journalism, she wrote for a number of print and digital publications — notably, she's contributed to PopSugar, Times Union: Hudson Valley, and Music Mecca. Along with this, Pearl wrote and designed an entire wellness-focused zine for her thesis project. She recently graduated from Syracuse University with honors and is now working as a freelancer for The List's features team. When she's not writing, Pearl can probably be found with her nose in a book or watching reality TV shows.
