Claire DeMarco

Hello! My name is Claire DeMarco, and I am a Fairfield University student, Class of 2025, double majoring in Communication and English: Professional Writing. I am originally from Malvern, Pennsylvania, which is just outside Philadelphia. My work experience includes an internship with the environmental health and safety company VelocityEHS as a part of their marketing department, as well as at my University in the Fairfield Study Abroad Office as a content creator. Beyond that, I am heavily involved with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and have been working with them since 2019 as a part of their Student Visionaries of the Year Team- originally as a fundraising member, then a candidate, and now as a member of the leadership board. As a writer, I am also a member of my university’s student newspaper, The Mirror, as well as our chapter of the HerCampus Magazine. I also serve as the editor of our school’s Stag Sports Writers Club, as well as writing for the Global Fairfield Stagbook platform. I look forward to exploring my interests in wellness, travel, and all things New England through my writing for The EastCoaster!
