Sperry is a sophomore majoring in English with dual concentrations in literature and creative writing, and is minoring in technical and science communication. She is also a member of the University Honors Program and currently serves as the 2018-2019 news editor for The Collegian.
Sperry worked as the web editor for her high school paper as a senior and developed a passion for web design, which prompted her to join The Collegian’s digital desk as a freshman.
Alongside former webmaster Josh Kloehn, Sperry helped redesign The Collegian’s website in spring 2018 with the goal of improving the reader’s experience and providing a more visual display for the paper’s digital content. She implemented a direct Instagram plugin and social media follower count to help The Collegian connect with readers online.
Last year, she also worked as the assistant webmaster to update Student Video Production’s webpage and developed the Style Overview page.
Her priority as webmaster is to engage The Collegian’s readership with an optimal multimedia experience and help the newspaper transition into its digital-first model.
In her free time, Sperry is an avid fan of books, all things science fiction and cats.

Editor’s Note: A previous version of “Meet your editors: Natalia Sperry, webmaster” posted August 19, 2018 had Josh Kloehn’s name spelled Josh Klohen. We have corrected this to reflect his correct name.
