Hi! I’m Rakhee Bhatt. I was born in New Jersey and raised in Southern California. I am currently a junior journalism major and politics minor at New York University. I have worked as a public relations intern for the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, as a staff intern at the Queens’ Courier, and have written contributing pieces for the Washington Square News. After college I plan on working in the fashion magazine industry so that I can share my love of fashion and celebrities with the world. I can be contacted at: rmb289 AT nyu.edu
