Hi! I’m Aidan Vanhoof, a 20-year-old student journalist at Rowan University.

I write. A lot, both for fun and, ideally, as a future career. It’s a perfect art: Any feeling, any sight, sound, or thought can be made by the hand of a skilled writer into a simple sequence of letters. 

My writing is on this website, where you’ll find both my long form essays and my shorter articles.

In terms of education, I graduated from Deptford Township High School in 2023 and received an associate’s degree in Business Administration from Rowan College of South Jersey.

Now, I’m a student at Rowan University, majoring in journalism with a minor in political science. I’m expected to graduate in Spring 2027.

I’ve worked as a caterer at Aulletto’s Catering, and I currently work as a childcare provider for the Deptford Township School District.

I hope you have a lovely day!
