Kai Bauer is a workshop facilitator, clothing designer, and writer. She is currently a senior at NYU in the Gallatin School of Individualized Study. Her concentration explores the intersectionality of the environmental justice movement and how social oppression is exacerbated by environmental issues. As a blog manager, researcher, and workshop facilitator, her interests led her to mass incarceration. She then started a creative mentorship program at Rikers Island Correctional Facility. In tandem with this program, Kai and her best friend, Clementine, began Not From Concentrate, a sustainable clothing company with a strong triple bottom line. She has interned at Amnesty International, Urban Democracy Lab, and most recently AGW Group. By intertwining intersectional justice principles with art, visual narratives, and media, Kai seeks more holistic ways to lead our lives through our values.

Devyn Olin is passionate about technology and the way it intersects with our world and the people in it. Devyn dedicated her studies at Gallatin to exploring the nature of businesses and relationships in the context of the digital age, specifically narrowing her focus through the female lens. Devyn completed an official Business Studies minor through the College of Arts and Sciences and Leonard N. Stern School of Business and served as Creative Director of Embodied Magazine from her Sophomore to Senior year, helping transition the publication from print to digital. Subsequent to graduating, she pursued a full-time job as a community manager at a social marketing agency.

Samantha Asher graduated from Gallatin in May 2017 with a concentration in the displacement of humans from the natural world and a minor in French. This essay was written after a trip to Dakar, Senegal in the summer of 2016, and it was one of her favorite written pieces of her undergraduate career! Although most of her studies covered environmental issues and philosophies, she has always loved the French language, and she was excited to explore its relationship with Senegalese culture.
