About the author

Abigail Freeman is a writer and editor based in Brooklyn. Officially in her late 20s (ouch), she’s constantly pondering whether she’s doing what she’s meant to be doing, wondering what everyone else thinks about the latest Big Thing, and consuming media and art made by young people who inspire her. Abigail has previously worked for Forbes, The Boston Globe, legal news service Law360, education content platform Newsela, and local media outlets in Massachusetts, Florida, and Australia.
