About

Marielle is the class books editor at MasterClass and the former Deputy Editor of Los Angeles magazine. She earned a Masters in Professional Writing from the University of Southern California and a BA in English Lit from Miami University (the one in Ohio). Both degrees came in handy when she appeared on Wheel of Fortune. In other news, she went viral once (sorry, Whole Foods) and started a business where she comes up with punny wedding hashtags for couples in need. Some other places you can read/hear/see her: the New York Times, NPR, Cosmopolitan, KTLA, KPCC, Relevant, and elsewhere. Follow her on Twitter and Instagram.
