Hello, I am Aaliyah Solano, a third-year multimedia journalism major and staff writer for The Loyola Phoenix. In any case, whether I’m reviewing films, television, music, or sporting events, writing satirical opinion pieces, or capturing footage and audio for compelling stories, I strive to create content that promotes authenticity and creativity as a multi-platform storyteller.

My free-time usually consists of listening to the latest music releases as a music connoisseur, dredging up "inspiration" from my favorite tv series’ that I’ve watched for the millionth time, or binging all things reality tv from MTV’s The Challenge to all the Real Housewives Franchises — no better way to decompress than watching grown women ruin each other’s lives in the name of entertainment.
