Contributing Artists & Writers

48 Allison Argueta (visual art) is a junior studying economics and psychology. In her free time, she enjoys reading, writing, and drawing.

Robert Castaneros (poetry) is currently a sophomore studying Political Science and Asian-American Studies. He has done creative writing for a while now, mainly creative non-fiction; however, during his sophomore year, he has been able to explore poetry more! He is especially interested in Asian-American poetics as a means of exploring his Filipino-American identity. Robert loves to sing, read, and watch movies! He also loves the allergen-free lemon blueberry muffins in the dining hall.

Elizabeth Grant (poetry) is a senior at Stanford where she studies Creative Writing. When she’s not working on poetry, her hobbies include gardening and studying constitutional and criminal law.

Emily Huang (prose) is a freshman at Stanford University hailing from the suburbs of northeastern Massachusetts. Her work has been featured by Adroit Journal, The Daphne Review, Apprentice Writer, Hypernova Lit, The Heritage Review, and elsewhere. She is passionate about exploring themes of trauma, family, and religion in her work. In her spare time, Emily takes on the roles of avid bookworm, poi and K-Pop dancer, and film soundtrack lover (the best music in the world, no questions asked).

Jinhyo Huh (visual art) is a sophomore reluctantly studying Computer Science. She was born in Seoul, Korea and had a wonderful childhood full of date trees, stray cats, and blackberries. When she was 7, she moved to Vancouver, Canada, and grew up loving skiing, snowboarding, people, and the sun.

Jacob Langsner (prose) is a 1L at Stanford Law School. He graduated Stanford University in 2021 with a BA in political science and a minor in art history. He continues to write and produce short films, which can be found at jacoblangsner.com, or through his

Andrea Liao (poetry) is a frosh at Stanford and plans to minor in creative writing on the prose track.

Benjamin Marra (poetry) is a sophomore majoring in English. I edit for the Leland quarterly, and I love poetry and fiction. My particular interests tend to be in the natural world and queer art.

Grace Miller (poetry) is a sophomore majoring in Computer Science from Savannah, GA. In her free time, she enjoys driving over bridges.

Kristofer Roland Nino (prose) is a freshman hoping to major in English with an emphasis on Creative Writing. When he’s not busy being wracked by existential horror, he can be found overanalyzing pop culture, drawing, working at a bookstore, eating cereal, daydreaming, and sometimes even writing poetry or short stories.

Kristie Park (visual art) is a sophomore studying Sociology and Biomechanical Engineering. She is currently interested in exploring themes of isolation and human interaction through her artwork, and enjoys experimenting with bold lines and bright color palettes to present a new perspective on scenes from daily life.

Jordan Pollock (visual art) is currently a junior majoring in English with a Creative Writing emphasis. In addition to writing literary fiction and dabbling in poetry, she sometimes takes up the paintbrush, the pencil, the stylus to create some visual art. In her free time she does a lot of existential pondering and sometimes goes for a walk.

Cassie Shaw (poetry) Within Rm 302 is Cassie: the skater with knee problems from riding goofy, the amiable redhead surrounded by a “scrapyard” of taped sketches, a fridge of fruit she’s swiped from dining halls, and a polaroid wall of visitors who come to her door. She prides herself in serving tea and inquiring strangers about their deepest secrets and idiosyncrasies.
